Model :

Hardware Version :

Firmware Version :

ISP :

Basically the title asks the question. I would like to wander all over the house and do not want to set up new passwords for each area so can I have everything on the same SSID and password. Not very competent so need simple instructions - which I will follow.

That is in fact the general idea in adding WiFi repeaters. Yes of course do you use the same SSID - and make sure you set them up to different channels such that you get good range overlap without the frequency overlap.

Your router has an admin interface, and so do the WiFi-enabled PLCs. 2.4 GHz channels are at least five-wide, so if you have to arrange three, your best bet is channels 1, 6, and 13. If you're in a country where channels 12,13 are disallowed, use 1, 5 and 11.
