True" hello everybody. - In my previous video, I showed you how to connect three Wi-Fi routers together. - I demonstrated how to get three routers talking to each other through a central hub. - The central hub in that three Wi-Fi router connector was a star topology, with this router being the central router. - In this video, I will change that setup and make this the primary router but not the central router. - We will take three routers and connect them together in a linear fashion, cascading from one to the next. - This daisy-chain configuration will extend the Wi-Fi range considerably and provide more coverage than a star topology. - The third router will connect to the second one, and the second one will connect to the main router. - I will demonstrate this more clearly in the next slide. - I will be using two WDS routers and one non-WDS router. - The non-WDS router will be the Netgear WNR2000 version 3, which does not require WDS. - The main router will be the TP-Link WR940N router, which has WDS. - The third router will be the TP-Link WR741N, also with WDS technology. - Both of these routers are available for under $30 and are highly reliable. - They work well and have the required WDS technology. - In the next slide, I will show you how this arrangement will be set up and why we are connecting them in a daisy-chain or linear fashion rather than a star topology. - This is the original configuration I showed in my first video, where two routers were connected to a central office Internet-connected router. - The blue and yellow range routers are secondary, while the third router is WDS-capable. - WDS stands for Wireless Distribution System. - The central router does not have WDS, but it does not need it.
