Hi,
I currently have a Belkin Wireless G Plus Mimo Router which provides wireless coverage for my house. It is upstairs, connected of course to the broadband modem.
Currently only my adjacent computer and the printer are 'hardwired' into the back, leaving 2 'computer' sockets free.
This covers upstairs fine, but the signal downstairs gets rather patchy towards the kitchen.
How do I run a further wireless access point to downstairs to improve my coverage?
Can I run a network cable from one of the spare sockets of the router to a mains networking plug, and then use the other plug downstairs to run into the back of another wireless access point? In other words, can my router relay the network signals to another access point via the 'computer' sockets on the back?
Hope someone can help!
