Try Powerline. This €40 device will turn your electrical sockets into an 100-500 mbps Ethernet cable. Simple and efficient. Just check if sockets you want to connect are on the same circuit breaker. If yes, chances are really high it would work very well.
I’ve connected a switch and a second access point with mine.
Also I think they work best if there fewer of them on the same circuit. But not sure. Check first.
- BadBadJellyBean 11mo agoI tried that but the performance was worse than wifi.
- MaKey 11mo agoG.hn powerline devices are better than the ancient HomePlug AV2 ones. Which devices did you try?
- izacus 11mo agoPowerline almost never comes close to performance of wifi in the same conditions. It's literally wifi just over an even worse medium.
- Hikikomori 11mo agoThrough thick brick walls?
- izacus 11mo agoYes. Usually power line also jumps circuits in those cases which massively degrades reliability and throughput.
