    Tenda W150M + multi connections

    Hi,

    Here is my dilema:-

    I have 3 rooms++++++++++++++++++++++++- to connect to a 3 MiFi device.

    I have dm500's in those 3 rooms that i need to connect to the Mifi.

    Q) Can i use Tenda W150M device on each box to enable internet connectivity?

    Q2) If so, i assume that i would choose "Client+AP Mode"

    Then..

    >>Scan for existing networks
    >>Choose network i want to connect to (3wifi)
    >>Ensure Encryption and Password is same as network i want to connect to.
    >>Now, i give the device a name and set a password up for this
    >>Save and reboot Tenda W150M

    Q) As two of the sat boxes are upstairs, when setting up their Tenda, can i configure them to connect into each other and then onto the 3wifi, as obviously the signal will be stronger?
    If not, do i set each of the Tenga's up identically and connect them straight into the source router (3 wifi)

    I apologise in advance for the lengthy post

    cheers all

    Yes that should work, ideally you want to try and get the interconnecting to each other in a mesh, I know e2 comes with babel, I dont think e1 does.

    There should be a 'batman' addon -

    due to the lack of space in the dm500, you will prolly need to network to a drive also, if you have not already.
