Awhile ago, someone supposedly more knowledgeable than myself told me to hook airport and century link like this. And, for a some time I have been having less than optimal wifi signal strength. Average is about 5 to 15 down. Up only 1 to 2 via speedtest. On my plan I was to expect no more than 20-30 up. My apartment building has 8 units. Not sure how many are on century link, maybe all, maybe none. Airport and century are approximately 15-20 feet from my computer; they're in living room, computers are in bedroom/office. (small apartment).
Question:
Do I need 1 or both? If both, are they plugged in correctly? If 1, which one? If airport, how do I go about setting/resetting it? If century link, same question?
I also realize, by chatting with various locals and computer stores, century link is a less than optimal provider. And living in the sticks (small town in lower Alabama), providers are limited. Imagine that...
Thanks to all with more knowledge than myself...
It's humpday and I have yet to get over the hump... :{
