dear all,

i am building wired network in my company camp instead of placing switch i used TL-WR843 lan ports to extend the network where wan port is unused only lan ports are used.

what i want to know is that these ports can be used as lan ports in sequence in instead of switch. lan port used the same technique as switch is used.

Umm...are you trying to place them in different locations? If not, I think a switch is better if you just need to connect more clients by cables.

Yes, they are. If you disable DHCP to use their LAN port and they work as switch as well as access points.

Describe in details. If you can upgrade firmwares for them, do it first.
