Hi all,
Looking for some advice on how to move this Actiontec router from a bedroom to an upstairs lobby area about 15-23 feet away for more accessibility and privacy.
Questions:
- Can I just buy a longer: 1) coaxial cable, 2) ethernet cable, and 3) extension cord to move this 15-20 feet?
Context:
1) Fibre is coming to the home via an ONT device on the first floor
2) ONT is hooked up to a ethernet jack to another jack in the second floor bedroom
3) Router is connected to the jack in the second floor bedroom
4) There is a wifi repeater on the first floor connected to the router via coaxial for better coverage
