The Tech Guy Leo Laporte -- He Knows His Stuff!

Strange as it seems, I have great WiFi in my Gizneyland studio, but zero WiFi in my apartment, even though they are back to back. Between the two apartments are bathrooms & small in kitchens and I would have expected WiFi to travel that far, but it doesn't. There is however a hardwired connection between the two apartments. I asked Leo how to get WiFi using the wired connection in my back apartment and he said buy a TP-Link Access Point. I bought the TP-Link Wireless Access Point TL-WA901N | 2.4Ghz N450 model. The company says: Designed to establish or expand a scalable high-speed wireless N network or to connect an Ethernet-enabled device such as a game console, digital media adapter, printer, or network-attached storage device to a wireless network. Supports Client, Multi-SSID, Range Extender, and AP operation modes to enable various wireless applications. It's also able to be powered using an Ethernet cable to simultaneously send data and electricity, up to 30 meters (100 feet) of flexible deployment with included Power over Ethernet Injector. Easily setup a WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK encrypted secure connection at a push of the WPS button. --- Okay, most of this I don't understand, but basically I plugged it in and it worked. But first I had to add a TP-Link TL-SG105 | 5 Port Gigabit Ethernet Splitter.

The single wire from my Gizneyland studio goes into the TP-Link TL-SG105 5 Port Gigabit Ethernet Splitter. Then a cable from the splitter goes to the new access point. Then I can add 3 other hardwired devices to the spitter and I also now I WiFi everywhere in Gizneyland and my apartment!

Thank you, Leo!

The splitter was under $16.00 when I bought it and I don't think I've seen ratings this high before on Amazon: 4.8 out of 5 stars from almost 64,000 reviewers!
