Hi there: A friend has Verizon DSL (because FiOS isn’t available within the city limits, I don’t know why), and the modem, or whatever its equivalent is for DSL, generates the wireless network in his house. He wants to extend that network so the rest of the house gets better signal strength, but there’s an exterior brick wall between where Verizon’s device is (in a newer addition to the house) and where the rest of the house is. I believe it will be possible to place the new device in such a way that it can pick up the current signal through a doorway, but I’m not 100% certain of that. So: will any wireless router do the trick, or should he be looking at some specific features in the extender? And are there any configuration points to bear in mind?
As always, my thanks in advance! *************** Bill Spencer in Maryland IMac Core 2 Duo 2.4 ghz/2 g RAM/Lion IMac Core 2 Duo 1.83 ghz/2 g RAM/Lion -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
