Hi everyone i'm here because i'm looking for some help setting up a wireless bridge to extend my home network. I'm not really sure as to what i'm doing and several videos and sources have directed me to towards this site so hopefully you guys have the patience to help a newbie
I have Optimum as my service provider and they provide a Netgear N600 Wireless Dual Band Router WNDR3400v2 with that odd custom firmware they have
My secondary router is my Old Linksys E3000 that i want to use to extend my network wirelessly allegedly i can if i install custom firmware which i'm really not sure?
So my questions are
Will Cablevisions firmware prevent me from doing this ?
What firmware do i need for my E3000 i was trying to do some research and i got confused between tomato/dd-wrt/other types of wrt??
Will there be any special type of setup or tinkering i need to do to get the network extended for my needs ?? i have 3 floors on my house router is on the top most of the second floor gets full bars, I'd would like to have the basement/outside get more then 1-2 bars Have a smart TV and a computer that cant be fully utilized because of weak signal
Thanks in advance hopefully you guys can help me figure this out
