Quick question of have i done this correctly really..
I have a virgin media super-hub with a DHCP Server enabled in router mode transmitting wireless at 2.4Ghz with connection 1 on its ethernet going into a TPlink 500mbps Homeplug (This is at the front of my house) which links to my upstairs Homeplug in the office. This was connected into my PC and running totally fine. I have since required better wireless signal upstairs as it cuts out a lot to 1 bar and my ps3 won't even pick it up sometimes.. Iv found an old D-link DSL 2640S sky router kicking about which i have turned the DHCP Server off and set its address as 192.168.0.20 to avoid confilicts with my virgin media network. I have plugged the ethernet from my homeplug in the office in the top port and its now transmitting the internet wirelessly with a different SSID without issue and im using my ethernet lead from my pc into the router on port 2.
Iv not noticed any speed drops or extra ping etc but will i encounter any problems doing this or should this setup run fine?
