    Two wireless router help

    Is this the wrong spot for this? Sorry if is. Hello, I have set up two wireless routers for my parents at their house, one in the basement (an asus AC router) and one upstairs in my bedroom (linksys n). This is where wires run to install a router and one needs to be downstairs for my brother's...

    Bad wifi connection

    Oh ok. See I assumed different devices auto switched. My old ssids were lastnameUp and lastnameDown but I thought if I kept them both just lastname when I re-set up network last month, then smart phones, ipads, etc. would auto switch to best connection as moved throughout the house.

    Bad wifi connection

    Sorry if this is the wrong spot for this. I am right next to my router. Whether it be my upstairs linksys router, or downstairs Asus router. Asus is set up as AP. When I look at the wifi SSID on my laptop which is right next to upstairs router, I have full bars. Yet, my phone right next to...

    Setting up old e3200 as an AP

    My new router downstairs is connected to this laptop via ethernet cable (through the floor). If I unplug the cable (so this laptop has no internet) and plug another cable into it and directly to a LAN port on the old linksys (right next to me, then run the setup (from the installation disc...

    Setting up old e3200 as an AP

    Sorry if this is the wrong spot to ask for help with this. I am trying to plug my old linksys e3200 in my bedroom, with my now brand new ASUS ac66u plugged in the basement. Wifi works great down there and in the living room now, but not so much in my bedroom, and since I stream a lot of stuff...

    I used the chart and have researched extensively

    Haha, i ordered this morning. Thanks tho. And ur advice doesnt fall on deaf ears, i just have to do what u said with the 66 instead of 68. No big deal. I went with the cheaper router because im not gonna be living at home with my parents for much longer so no point in getting a really good...

    I used the chart and have researched extensively

    Moved the e3200 to the basement for today just to see how a router plugs in downstairs vs my room upstairs, wifi works good in the basement now of course but pretty bad in my bedroom. The living room is more or less the same, as are the other two bedrooms (all first floor, above basement)...

    I used the chart and have researched extensively

    The thing is, my wifi is pretty bad for streaming into my living room (25 feet from router in my bedroom) and wifi is almost non existant in the basement. So, i was definitely looking to upgrade. Maybe turn my e3200 into a WAP (if i even need to) or is that not possible with a newer ac router...

    I used the chart and have researched extensively

    I am asking here still, because I don't know if it's worth it to upgrade my current (old) linksys e3200 to either an AC1900 or a AC1750 router. I've read several things saying the bump from 1750 to 1900 is pretty small so if I had a 1750 router already, I likely wouldn't upgrade. But since my...
