Hello,

 

Can the LAN ports on the router in Range Extender Mode provide wifi access to a device that doesn't have wifi capabilities? I would like to plug a non-wifi device into the router's LAN ports to provide it with wifi access. Is this possible?

 

Thank You.

When C54 is in RE mode plugging a wired device in the C54 LAN port would provide connectivity for this device as if it was connected wirelessly.

Thank you for answering my question! Being able to use LAN ports in Range Extender mode is very useful and a nice feature for devices that don't have wifi capabilities.
