[QUOTE="quj, post: 1052266, member: 153078"] Hello, I am really needing help with this. I have been scratching my head about what to do. I have a cable modem through a local ISP. The ISP provides the signal which is connected to the cable modem through a coaxial cable. There is an ethernet cable from the modem in to my wireless router. From the wireless router comes out three ethernet cables which give connections in to three different rooms. Here is my problem -I am trying to upgrade to a n wireless router. -I am also trying to add either a NAS+printer+Airport Extreme Base Station or NAS+printer+Time capsule Things would have been easy setup but all this setup of cable modem and wireless router is in the basement. I want to be in one of the rooms with an ethernet connection. So my question is if I can add the NAS+printer+AEBS/TC combination in any one room with an ethernet cable, will there be a problem because the Linksys will be running a different wireless network and there will be another wireless network running through the AEBS or TC. One will be g and one will be n. Is there something that I can use to get rid of the Linksys all together and have some kind of a splitter which will accept the one input of the cable modem and give out the three ethernet connections to the rooms where I can plug in the fancy setup of NASetc etc I am dreaming of. Any help or advice will be appreciated [/QUOTE]
