      Shit, that means I need a AP too 😞

      Right, I was looking for a simpler solution, but really, nothing in home router class can do it.

        Here is what I am thinking about ordering:

        image without a name

        This is what I would do. In fact, I might just get me a TP-Link anyway, because there is a Comcast Xfinitiy wireless in range of my house. As a subscriber, I can access it. Dual WAN for me!

          That's a great point! I can do that too! Fun project tonight! 🙂

                        My CradlePoint is an old original model with no built in WiFi, so cannot use it like this. I'll have to contemplate purchasing a TP-Link.

                          You should, it is working great and only $19.99!

                          Sometimes they go on sale for 9.99
