Hiya folks, I am looking for a wifi extender that can serve as a temporary Ethernet solution for my server.
In short; My housing situation is temporary and while I do have access to WiFi, I do not have access to the router. So I thought I’d buy a WiFi extender that my server can connect to, until I move again (need to stay here 5 months). I thought about trying to bridge my connection from my Desktop PC to the Server, but realised that means I need both of them on at all times. So I’d rather buy an extender which I might be able to use long term.
I have been looking at Ubiquiti equipment, but seem a little expensive for me right now. However, this brand does look tempting to invest into in the future (feel free to suggest other brands, if you recommend any others!). But yeah; for now I think a WiFi Extender could do the job, one that has an Ethernet port ofc.
Edit; I could also invest in a cheap network card for the server ofc, might that be a better solution?
Any suggestions are much appreciated 🌻
