    <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 THANKS for the quick reply I really hope this will work properly it doesn't seem like that much of a money waster if it doesn't work $54.00 I feel abit more assured now that I know abit about it.It's a bit of a disappointment having the bandwidth slowed down but hey atleast if I try this I might have strong connectivity which is what I want fingers crossed if I purchase this router most likely tomorrow morning(technically 4hrs pretty much seen as it's 1.35am in the morning hehehe)that there is no compatibility issues really appreciate the advice big thanks!!!! if only there were more people like!

    In fact, with wireless repeating, your performance will decrease by half. But really, connectivity is more of an issue than performance anyway.



    Set the 1st router in your parents' house to Access Point AND repeater mode. Set the 2nd router in your sleepout to Repeater Only.

    I have no idea whether that router you showed in the second pic will work or not. Honestly, no idea. But since you said that your dynalink router can't really be bought anymore, you'll have to take a shot at something anyway.

    edit: This product says that it will work with routers that don't have WDS functions. That suggests their normal models' repeater functions will work with other brands as long as they have WDS. (Which you do). Seems like a pretty safe bet for you linked router then. Or pay $11 more for surefire success. Your choice.
    what the heck I posted just before but its disaapeared odd anyway yea I might deeply consider purchasing the wireless router in a couple of hours/morning lol fingers crossed no issues with both routers being different brands and what was the option that was $11 more?
