Chaps as I sit here with a melted brain, I need help on this subject.
For my man cave I have run cat cable from the router in the house to a junction box in the man cave.
So I have only one connection in cave, I do have a 5 hub desktop Ethernet switch box thing so I can share the one input.
OK so what I need to do it is put a wireless repeating thing attached to the 5 port hub so i can have strong WiFi in the man cave because of the new camera system I have installed.
I cannot use a PC hot spot as I turn it off when not being used.
Any ideas please, thank you.
 
Solved - using a WiFi extender plug in the cave actually works even though my router is 20 mtrs away and I have solid stone walls.
Oh well kudos to the BT repeater lol, getting 90% signal now.
 
A technically better solution is to plug an Access Point (AP) into the ‘switch box thing’, but if what you have does what you need, then go for it :)
