I just hooked it up to an ethernet connection via a switch on the same LAN as the router. I configured it witha staticIP address which works with the router's fixed subnetand basically ignore the Wifi that came with it. Thisseems to work well and has a much better signal in my home and garage (for the wifi enabled sprinkler control). It isn't mounted to the roof, just next to the switch. EAP1250 - Wi-Fi 5 Wave 2 AC1300 Compact Indoor Wireless AP I expect this will work with any standalone access point which doesn't just retransmit another signal. I don't know what you just said but I want it if it works. I have no clue about networking,subnets,static IP's etc, will this work for dummies? Lol I've gotten a Linksys, TP Link and net gear extenders and none work. It's a discontinued product. I just looked.6Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Home Internet and wifi extender

I also have the new TMobile internet and due to the my upload speed being less than 2mbps (absolutely ridiculous) I am unable to my security system being that cameras required at least a 10 upload speed. I have spoke with CS for hours and got nowhere? I was told that it should be at least 15 but I have never seen it above 6 in my house. I'm so disappointed being that I had Cox Gigablast before switching and was told that it would match or exceed them... We just got new TMobile home internet and I'm super upset. Spent an hour on the phone trying to connect my canon printer (it works through WPS and don't ask me why the number/letter key pad won't work like a phone…but even if it did and had upper/lower case letters, you can't get special characters and who just uses all CAPITAL letters for passwords these days?). TMobile gateways don't have a WPS button. So I purchased a TP-Link Router with a WPS button figuring I'd plug it in, set it up and I'd be good. Alas! So it's go back to XFINITY and get reliable speeds and a WPS button or go buy all new security cameras and a new printer…I love you guys but I'm a 56 yr old disabled flight attendant who's lucky to know what a router is so all the tech' talk just leaves me utterly flabbergasted.6Visto0likes0Comentarios
