Hi

 

I want to use my Archer C5 as repeater and wouldn't like to use any external LAN cable. Is it possible?

 

Thanks

Hello,

 

You may check if you can find and enable the WDS function on it and below is the instruction you can give it a go:

While please notice that there may have some limits that will affect the performance, so we cannot guarantee the performance, even whether the C5 can connect to your existing wireless router.

 

Good luck~
