to connect to the existing network can this connect to through Ethernet?

Question

Accepted Answer

I don't see a way to connect TO the range extender via ethernet. Once it receives a wireless signal from your current router it rebroadcasts the signal, and it also sends it to 4 OUTbound ports on the back. This device is very easy to set up. The advantage of a device with ethernet input is that it is receiving the output from your router at the best speed, so it has a better signal which it can then rebroadcast. But most people get range extenders because they don't want long cables. With this product, ideally you would place it somewhere between the router location and where you want the wifi signal to reach. Newegg sellsTP-LINK TL-WA801ND Wireless N300 Access Point for $25. This product gets power and internet from an ethernet cable from the router or modem, not via wifi. Then it broadcasts wifi. The kind of product you choose depends on what you want to accomplish.
