Hello, I currently have a router on my living room but the signal is not strong enough to reach my bedroom. Can I pass an ethrernet cable underground from my router and use one of these ( https://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-Link-Wireless-Router-Button-TL-WR841N/dp/B001FWYGJS/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1499604262&sr=8-2&keywords=ethernet+switch+with+wifi ) to increase the wifi range and even make any wired connections?

It may be easier to purchase a extender which plugs in the wall outlet and connects to your router which relays it to a different point in your house aka improving the signal.

I know that wires can be iffy just because you have to drill and than wire where you want it if you at least want a clean install.

Even that you can purchase the same router if it's inexpensive and setup bridge.

The holes already exist. I have a sort of underground tubing network for all the cables. I would like to keep the option of cable connections because some of my equipment here can only connect to the internet through cable

powerline adaptors are useful in situations like that.

I researched about that as an option but it won't work in my case. Thus asking if what I talked about above would work in my case because the 4 ethernet ports would come in handy in the future
