Network help, wireless extenders

[grandfortune]

Ok got the following
TP link - tl sg1008p switch

3x linksys ac1200 max wifi extenders

He has a bthub 6 ,

Can i just connect the switch straight into the hub , then cat6 to points in the house then plug the extended in

I have the extenders plunged into the hub but can't seem to connect ??

You think I need to change the hub for a router ?

I fitted the switch and existing extenders work fine though it , can't seem to get the link says ones to work .

Is your switch poE compatible? You may need to use a local power supply for the extenders also if not.

Hi - just on the extenders bit - I have seen these not connect due to wifi security issues, so I would remove all security and reset. Once it's working then security can be sorted step by step. Hope that helps.

Yes there is 4 Poe ports but I'm using the others in the switch, you think I should put them in the pro ports?

 

[grandfortune]

Extenders have there own power supply
