Hi... The wireless router given by the ISP just died so I got a ADSL modem and now looking to get a router + repeater.
need some help on how to set it up. I mean,
I think the modem should be in bridge mode.
Does the router connected to modem act as repeater or
Does the repeater come in-between the router(one connected to modem) and the other endpoint(home server).
Broadband is not more than 4Mbps.
Modem used is TP-Link TL-8817
Based on the replies i am looking to buy routers and repeaters.(Keeping it as less as possible)
My old wifi adsl+router dint have a very good range(Unknown brand)
I currently looking at TP-TL-1043ND/Asus RT-N16/Netgear JWNR2000 as possible router. Well these are within my budget and also support DD-wrt.
Any suggestions is highly appreciated..
setup I am trying to achieve:-
Recently purchased a laptop so looking convert my desktop to all purpose home server(file/media/storage etc..) therefore looking to place my desktop on the ground floor while use the laptop from 1st floor..
I trying to setup a wireless connection from my room(laptop) to the home server & also if possible setup a mediocre wifi coverage for cellphone. Its not big place but lot of walls present(not sure if that's relevant :hmm
