Question

I want to connect a tv to wifi

Mar 12, 2018 9:06AM PDT

The TV is too far away from the router so the tv doesn;t pick up the signal. Any ideas on how I can get this connected without having to get another router?

Use a wireless repeater, an access point or a powerline adapter, or go to a mesh network. Strictly speaking those aren't routers, so they meet your requirement.

Or move the router to a better place, further from the modem and nearer to the TV. Or go wired.
