Hi all, looking for some guidance on getting wired networking upstairs to my pcs.

Currently I have my internet connection coming in downstairs. Without running cables upstairs is it possible to connect something to my existing wifi network and then break it out to to ethernet?

Any help much appreciated.

    I’m not familiar with OpenWRTs setup unfortunately.

    DDWRT makes this super simple: select wifi mode ‘client bridge’, provide SSID+Auth. Lan is now bridged to wlan. No double NAT.

      Hmm yeah, that sounds like I was expecting to be able to do, I’ll give it another try later, maybe I can install ddwrt? I’ll look into it, thanks!
