Hi, I will be helping my family recontract our internet services and will be getting a free DIR-868L (instead of the "wireless gateway", which we all know too well that they should not be used unless necessary. Will have to hold on to it due to contractual requirements anyway).
Currently am using the wireless gateway and a spare DIR-655 as the AP, which can cover until right before the first floor's kitchen.
Here's what I am planning to do once I get the new router:
2nd Floor:
Homeplug
|
Switch - 1 PC, 2 Laptops
|
Internet - DIR-868L - (wireless to other devices)
1st Floor (in the kitchen):
1 Laptop
|
Homeplug - AP - (wireless to other devices)
Will this do or should I try to get another router to replace the 868L first (note that this means that it will be more expensive and still unknown if it can fix that dead spot in the kitchen)?
Thanks!
