Use existing router as an access point?
I just received and installed a new 5G internet device (the Sagemcom FAST one). In its present location, it is reporting 4 bars (very good) of reception. However, its wifi function is relatively weak...
No, just suggesting setting it up as a router so you don't lose any of its features - as an access point you'll lose some features that are specific to that router. In both cases it starts with connecting your router's WAN port to one of the TMobile ethernet ports…

However, its wifi function is relatively weak in its location (and note I have it in the same location as the router I used with our previous cable internet service), so several of our wifi devices struggle to run properly (dropped connections, slow speeds, etc.). My existing router provides excellent coverage in our home so I'm wondering if I can use it as an access point with the 5G device. If so, how do I set them both up to make this happen?
I been having the same issues and can't seem to get any internet that can make my fire stick and/or other internet devices function properly! This is definitely a regretful decision I made leaving old provider and getting this slow and no service home internet!! I am gonna post bad reviews on any websites and Google for sure about this home internet issue!
