That'll be the fecking Amitriptyline talking I'm afraid :(

So you have ethernet ports in other parts of the house now due to rewiring and you then hard wire your other deco units into those ports? And those ethernet connections in the other parts of the house run off of the ethernet switch? I'm trying to paint pictures in my mind, but not doing it very...

Pre fibre, yes. If your signal is already weak and slow a booster won't actually 'boost' it. Just move it around, as you say. But with fibre and speeds of over 30mg and then some, they now become a good option again I would have thought.

I'm confused about the bit where you say you hard wire the other two deco's in to the ethernet switch. How does that work? I thought only the master unit has to be connected by ethernet and the other units receive the signal from that wirelessly? Am I misunderstanding?

Thanks for the answers above. I had read about occasional drop outs and a slight lowering of speed. I think if I didn't have the wired connections in existing router I'd give it a try, but not sure it's worth the pfaff now just to cover the odd unreliable signal spot in the house.

If the main unit is plugged into existing router and now takes over the network, does that mean any ethernet connections to existing router now have to go into this unit instead? If so, two ethernet connections on the unit isn't going to be enough when I currently have three things plugged into...
