    Morning - I am still hesitating between the EAP225 Wall (nice but difficult to fit) and EAP225 Outdoor (less nice for indoor usage). I have noticed that EAP225 Wall has 2 Ethernet ports on the bottom indicated as OUT (while the IN one is at bottom-. By any chance, do you know if I could...

    I have one wire going from the switch to the current junction box with rj45 female plug. There is no space to add a second network wire in the sheath. So I would need to remove the female plug, put a male plug instead and add anew hole for a 1 gang junction box. Am I right ?

    My experience is that signal does go across floors (vertical) My RT-AC88U is installed in first floor the house and his signal is very bad on second floor. So I found that the best way is to have access point wired on each floor. Each floor is not very large and easy to cover horizontally (no...
