There are no more than two ways to improve the signal of the router. One is to pull the network cable and the other is to bridge. Nowadays, most routers are wired and wireless integrated devices, that is, when transmitting wireless signals, they also have a wired LAN interface. Adding a router connected to the main router through a network cable transmits wireless signals through an extended router, which is equivalent to using multiple routers, or transmitting multiple wireless signals.
The biggest advantage of the network cable is that the signal stability is good, the connection volume is large, and the disadvantages are also obvious. You need to pull a network cable. Instead, it uses signal coverage. The extension of the wds bridge method also increases the connection between other routers and the main router. After wireless bridging, the extended signal ssid is the same as the main route, which is equivalent to when the signal is large. I am all. The bridging method is not limited by the network, and the expansion is more flexible. The disadvantage is that the stability is not as good as the wired connection.
It should be noted that to set the wireless router and the wireless router for relay, you need to set the same ssid and select a specified channel. At the same time, the two wireless routers for wireless relay can only use the wep mode for wireless encryption , Or not encrypted, here, it is recommended that you choose a router with better performance as the primary router, and a router with poor performance or an old-fashioned router as the secondary router (bridged router)
The wds bridging method extension solution requires the router to support the wds bridging function. If the home network equipment does not support it, you can also use a WiFi signal amplifier, which is simply a WiFi signal relay. For example, the WiFi signal in the living room is very strong, but it can only be 10 meters in diameter. Go online within the range, then this time,We can install a WiFi range extender so that we can surf the Internet within 20 meters. Use a wireless signal amplifier to extend WiFi, no need to connect a network cable, you need to install a wireless signal amplifier on the nearby power strip where the signal is poor, you can amplify the original wireless signal, and the WiFi name is still the same.
