Hey guys. I am starting to work from home this week and your feedback is greatly appreciated.
My desk and computer are on the third floor. The computer connects wirelessly to the modem/router on the first floor just fine, with lots of signal. However, My VOIP phone that work requires me to use needs a connection by Cat5.
My question: is there any way to connect the phone to a router or switch in my office with a cable, but have the office router or switch connect wirelessly to the modem/router combo on the first floor?
What do I need to do this. I really don't want to run a cable up 2 flights of stairs, and my landlord isn't cool with drilling holes in the floor. Thanks.
