The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Using a Router as a Repeater

Hey gang!

I've been offline for a while coz we just got a new ISP for broadband. The ISP supplied us with a router but certain control freak members of the household want their unit hardwired to the modem pinning the sodding thing in one corner of the house (namely the farthest one :rolleyes: ). I thought that maybe I could use the old router we previously had as a repeater/signal booster so that more of the house could be covered for using the net.

So far what I've looked up has just given me headache and only bits and pieces of their instructions seem to work. Does anyone know of any way to rig a Belkin N1 router to another modem and use it as a repeater/signal booster? Any help would be appreciated before I turn the bloody thing into a frizbee and let it tour the world via my bedroom window!  :p

Cheers guys! ;)
