“Q: I’ve got a house made out of lead. Well, 1945-style chicken
wire plus plaster–it doesn’t do well with 2.4Ghz. I wired my house
with gigabit Ethernet. My main router is in the basement, Linksys
WRT54GSv4, and a secondary router in my office on the 2nd floor, a
Buffalo WHR-G54S. Both running Tomato 1.25.“I want to have both running wireless on the same SSID, except
that instead of using a wireless connection back to my main Linksys
router, I want my Buffalo router to use a wired connection, to
avoid unnecessary wireless traffic that the wired network
can’t handle. Any ideas? – Peter”
