    Storage Solutions Need Fastest internal 2 or 3 TB drive

    repeater using wired connection for wireless network extension

    Will do that and revert. The AP is on the same floor where apple is but about 2 walls, 6ft above, 10ft away. So not on separate floors. I also think, since apple router is on stairs, it will make a diagonal reach to my devices via floor concrete as well. So, floor + 2 walls. never...

    repeater using wired connection for wireless network extension

    Oh, i didn't know if i could use my existing netgear routers as AP. Cos when i use them, by putting wire in their LAN ports and disabling DHCP and bringing their IPs in the same series as of my main apple router, they make another wifi network instead of expanding the same apple network. 1. I...
