Hi Everyone,
I have 2 plusnet 2 routers. I'd like to connect the second to the first via ethernet to improve the wifi coverage to run a security camera attached to the side of my garage.
I can follow basic instructions and can access the advanced menu in either router. The guidance from other posts does not quite match the routers I have hence this post.
Thank you,
Marcus Simpson.

welcome to the community
Try this link Hub two as WiFi access point
Edit: you would connect LAN to LAN port.

Hello Dan,
Thank you for linking a previous post to my query. If for example I want to have the second router mimicking the first to roam across routers can I change the router name and password to be the same as for the master router? If so how do I do that?
I assume that in the case this all doesn't work then providing that nothing has changed on the master router a factory reset will return the second router back to its previous adjusted state?
Thanks,
Marcus.

To change the WiFi name and password to match the main router, look here
A factory reset does the trick.
