Quantum Gateway G1100

[BurgerDohnut]

Hello everyone,

First timer here; I just had a quick question.  Ill get right to the point.  I currently have a G1100 Quantum Gateway set up next to the ONT in the basement of my 3 floor house.  WiFi works most everywhere, but is very spotty (poor signal) on the 3rd floor.  The signal definitely could be better. 🙂

So I mistakenly got and paid for a second G1100.  Instead of returning it I kept it thinking I could extend the WiFi signal to the third floor.  I was wondering if this is possible?  Could I plug a CAT6 or even a second Coax into the second router and set it up somehow to clone the original to extend the signal.  Use it as a repeater/extender?

Any help or insight would be much appreciated.  Hopefully there are some ideas floating out there.

Thanks,

Burger

You have a couple of options:

1) Get a WiFi extender. This will work easily with your setup.

2) Can you try moving the one router up one floor to see if you get better coverage.

3) Have not read anyone using a G1100 as a WiFi extender over MOCA.
