Hi,
I'm new to this forums and a bit new in networks, also english is not my mother language.
Okay, so I have a 2 stories house in the middle of the city, I have a modem/router (All in 1, yes, probably cant change it) provided by my ISP, which is located on the second floor. Problem is, this router doesn't fulfill my needs because it doesn't provide a decent range for my house, so I have very low signal in some parts of it.
I was wondering if I can wire the router with a TP-Link Access Point/Repeater from the second floor to the first floor, because if I use it in wireless mode the original signal would be bad, making the repeater extend a bad signal. So should I set this TP-Link to repeater or AP mode? Can I just wire the router with the TP-Link without problems?
The modem/router is from Cisco, it's a DPC3825.
The AP I actually have is a TL WA730RE , that can be changed for another model.
Thank you
