Recently upgraded from basic BT internet (with discs) to EE Full Fibre. We have a relatively large old house with thick walls. Router located at one, extreme side of the property. The router is wired directly to a 28 port TP Link switch which is, in turn, wired via CAT6 cables up to various ethernet ports throughout the house (mainly behind all the tvs). In terms of wifi, anything near the router is quick and direct wired connection is excellent.
The new router works fine and the hard wired connection to the TVs works very well. My issue and question relates to how i best deal with the distibution of wifi throughout the property which, (with no discs) is extremely poor as expected. I now need to add some form of extenders or boosters but my question is - do I have to do this using a mesh or linking system using wifi connected discs or is there a way I can take advantage of the wiring we have in place and plug the discs straight into the ethernet ports which are all wired back to the TP Link and provide a rapid directly connected source of internet into the far reaches of the property?
Given the existing cable set up it just seems illogical to try to create a better distribution of internet using wifi connected discs when we could easily use directly linked cables all over - the question is how best I can do this? Thanks
