[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 954440, member: 176256"] And as I replied originally, it was my supposition that the connection to the main router was wireless and that the Ethernet port on the remote unit is for connecting to devices, such as a printer, which have a LAN RJ45 connection but are not wireless themselves. I further posited that the SSID was cloned so that handover is seamless. T then said I was pretty much right. Halving the bandwidth? Don't know about that but speed of connection decreases with distance so there will inevitably be a drop-off due to the master and slave being apart but that is undoubtedly less than the very poor signal from just the master. The last paragraph is all new. [/QUOTE]
