I have my cable modem plugged into a router. The router is then plugged into two macs via ethernet. It works great but the wifi is terrible, even when right next to it. Its even worse when I want to use it in the living room (the main room I would use mobile).
My question is this:
Can I route a third ethernet cable from my router to an additional second router in my living room; this second router would be used soley for a strong wifi signal. Kind of like an extender, but hardwired to my original router.
I don't want to spend money on a new router to replace my old one, and my dad has a router I can use for free to use as this "extender".
Is this a good idea or will this mess something up with my original router, etc....
