+Lama Anime Hi, this video is about 5 years old now sure there are even better devices out there now but yes ethernet going all over the house is not necessary. Find a "tech" friend or pop in to a tech store like Best Buy and get advice on your setup. Wifi speeds are really good now I think 802.11ac is the latest and even if you have thick walls you can use the electricity wiring in your house to send broadband signal using something called powerline technology. Good luck!
Do you know what kind of distance range from wireless bridge to home hub can the D-Link DAP-1522. I'm looking at best options for my garden office (back of garden).
I don't actually I never used mine wireless. I gave it to my boss at work and she uses it for garden wifi but I don't know much about her setup. Sorry Gareth.
Thank you, I know this is an old video but this information is exactly what I need. I hope connecting my PS4 through a bridge to my 5ghz network will work.
hey, i have a dlink DAP-1533 N450 bridge and its set up and works on my laptop and other devises in my home. good internet too. just not on my ps3. do you know what the hell the deal might be???
@saintlyboy1 I suppose, considering it also comes with 4 ports to use, its not a bad buy for the specification you get I've connected my modified bridge up to my printer, PS3(new and not played on), and my £15.24 PC(Using laptop most of the time) So Ill see how it goes lol
You sound like you're bit more of a techie than me! Find the bridge also really handy for the laptop downstairs sometimes too as if I want to download a large file then I can just stick an ethernet cable in to laptop and one of the four ports and use the 5Ghz band to download at high speed. Wanted a dualband adaptor for laptop but actually having an 802.11n adapter seems fine for most things.
Sorry, found that you have Dual band Gigabit router. In that case, the DIR-825 would be best to modify as long as its B1 or B2 but you paid around the same for your Wireless bridge, so I suppose its not too bad a price then
suppose its a bit late now, but you could have got a Dlink DIR-615 router and modified it with DD-WRT at a cost of around £10-£20. Within DDWRT, then you have the option to set it up as a repeater bridge and connect like that but fair play on you getting your PS3 set up(just paid a bit too much thats all)
