Hi

 

My parents home have a fiber based system with AX1800dsl connected to it.

 

What I wanted to do is to put set several routers around the house and connect each one by cable. (Still mesh wifi?)

 

What I was thinking is a switch and from the switch transfer a cat6 cable to each room.

There connect to the router.

 

And I want the switch to be able to support high speed (10Gbit/s for the future) and also connect to the internet from it (dialer) instead the main routers. 

That way the connection is done though the switch and the routers just for the wifi 

(Even if I connect my laptop to the switch by cable, there will be Internet)

 

Is it possible? Which switch should I get? No need for more than 4 ports.

(Also possibility for POE port just in case)

 

Thanks

 

Eli

I'm not sure about the response.

Does this has a dialer inside? in other words, can i use this switch to connect to the internet without my router?

And use my router just as wifi from the switch?

you can us a switch in this situation : router from your provider to switch. from your switch Ethernet cable to other switch and daisy chain that to other switches.

on every switch you can plugin a TP-link mesh wifi device. be aware only one tp-link device must be setup as your main device.

 

if that is al in place you can switch off your wifi signal in your router, and make sure the main tp-link device is in access point mode.
