TP-LINK TL-WA5210G to bring wifi into metal barn
Model :
Hardware Version : Not Clear
Firmware Version :
ISP :
I'm trying to get network access into a metal barn from the house. My house wifi signal (with WPA security) can reach the barn but can not go through the metal walls. I have a TL-WA5210G and several old routers that I can use to create this system.
Can I put the TL-WA5210G on the barn to communicate with the house? How would I set that up? From my playing with it, I think I need to set it as an access point but then I can't use WPA. Is that correct? Are there any other options?
Thanks for any help!
