Hi All,

I am planning on extending the wifi in my house. My current host router is upstairs at the front of the house so I get bad wifi at the rear of the house downstairs. My plan is to add an additional router (TL-WR940N) in the loft, set to point to point bridge mode which receives excellent wifi signal and run an Ethernet cable down to another router (another TL-WR940N) set to act as an access point in the weak wifi signal area.

I just wanted to confirm this will work really?

I have considered options of powerline and just connecting directly by Ethernet from the host router but the above option is the easiest for me.

Diagram of idea:

[Host router]))))))))))connects wirelessly to ))))[2[SUP]nd[/SUP] router which acts as a bridge]------connects by Ethernet to -----[3[SUP]rd[/SUP] router acting as access point] ))))))) broadcasts new wifi signal))))))))))


Thanks for the help
