I have bought today a Vera3. I have a house 2 layers. The layer on street level have my modem and router from my ISP. on the 2nd floor there is no or very little signal. Fortunally i have a switch with 24 connections but sometimes we need wifi at the 2nd floor. The Vera3 is on the 2nd floor because there is the rack with mac pc switch etc). Is there a way to connect the Vera with rj45 and make it a 2nd access point for wifi? (of course is have another name than the 1st router).
[b]I already have a home router (i.e. DHCP server) and don't want Vera to replace my router[/b]Normally this should be handled automatically. You simply connect Vera’s WAN port to your existing home network and Vera should automatically detect that you already have a router, and then Vera will automatically turn off Vera’s built-in router functions, like firewall and DHCP server, thus becoming a normal network device. You can still find Vera on your home network using the findvera.com web site, and you can connect any network devices to Vera’s 4 LAN ports or to Vera’s Wi-Fi network, and they will work just fine on your home network, getting an IP address from your existing home router. When you go to the ‘Net & Wi-Fi’ tab on Vera, you will see the DHCP server is set to “OFF”, and the firewall is set to “No Firewall”. (See the IMPORTANT NOTE below.)
