    Our TV is in a dead spot. When we had the BT modem I put a repeater/booster gadget half way between the router and the TV. It worked. Now we have a Linkssys router and modem and for the life of me I cannot get the old gadget to connect to the new Router. Quite happy to buy a different repeater, but which would be the correct one?

    Not something I know lots about but I did use a repeater a few years ago, never found that easy to connect in the end i had the modem moved.
    Is it possible to connect with a cable.

    Sorted thanks. Bought a new repeater. Too far for a cable to reach.
