Ok hope I can explain this well enough. We have a DSL connection with a modem that is also a router. We use that router for the wireless network in our house. There is a laptop and printer that connects to that mode/router wireless and 2 desktops that are hardwired to the modem.
Now here is where I get really confused. We have another building that is about 200ft away from the house. We ran ethernet cable from the modem in the house to the building 200ft away. Internet works fine when connected to that cable. What I want is to have wireless in that building.
Now is my best bet hooking up a separate router in that building? Would that router be using the same network inside the house? There will be things that will be hardwired to the 2nd router as well. Would I need to change any settings in the 2nd router? Do I need to set it up as a repeater?
I already bought a router for this, a Linksys wrt3200acm with MU-MIMO that came with an adapter. If needed I can return this. After doing a little reading on MU-MIMO, not sure everything will be able to connect to this router wireless because of the MU-MIMO.
