I've just decided to use my old Netgear DG834N as a wireless access point in my lounge. I've connected to the Netgear N300 upstairs via my Powerline network point and to be honest all seems to be working, but I want to check if I missed anything?
Some facts
1) The N300 is the Master and connects to the phone point
2) The 2 are connected via Powerline cable not wifi
3) I've fixed the IP of the lounge device on the Master
4) I've fixed both devices to use different channels
5) I've not set up any of the devices to be extenders as they are cabled together
6) I've got 2 different SSID's which is fine
7) I've got locked down access to Mac addresses on both devices
It seems to be working fine but wondered if there is anything I am missing here as when I tried this before it kept going offline but now seems fine and I am unsure I've changed anything?
Thanks
