Fritzbox as a repeater?
Hello, can I set up my old Fritzbox as a repeater and then connect it via LAN cable to my gaming PC, which will arrive in a few days? So, I put the old box in the mesh of the current/new one and then I can simply connect it via LAN cable, right?
Yeah, I should go.
I can’t tell you 100% sure that’s what I can do, but I’ve done this before.
The Fritz!Repeaters are also in any case.
Yes, it works with almost all FritzBoxes.
Of course, I would like to

Otherwise as standard WLAN repeater (IP client):
as @IDirk (in his link) recommends.
Good luck looking!

Thank you, I’m sure it helps me a little:) I’ll go to the attic tomorrow and see if I find one 👀
Works perfectly, here with a 7590ax and a 7490 as mesh repeater.
Go.
Whether it is particularly performant, stands on another sheet.
