Toms,
Problem: My internet comes into my home in my basement. I have one cable that I painstakingly ran above my basement ceiling through the floor and to the main floor of my house. Everything is fine except that my newer NAS is trapped in my tv cabinet and running too warm. I want to move it to the basement where the temperature is cooler.
Here is my currently setup in a linear fashion:
(Internet)--------ethernet cable-------------airport extreme on 1st floor-ROKU3-AppleTV-TP-LINK TL-SF1005D switch--Drobo5N--office computer.
Is it possible to run it like this:
(Internet)-------TP-LINK TL-SF1005D switch----Drobo----Airport extreme-----etc...etc....? Allowing me to leave the airport extreme on the 1st floor? What are my options other than running a second cable down in the basement? Range extender? Thank you for your input.
