I need to hook up 7 access points to my "Main" WIFI Router due to large building with 3 floors and concrete walls in order to get coverage. I have already setup 4 and they work great (ASUS AC66R equipment). I am not a techie, but is there are "work-around" the fact that my "Main" WIFI Router only has 4 LAN outlets on the back -- can I use a switch or something to connect more Access Points (sorry, I don't know anything about switches, hubs, etc.). Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, just add a switch to expand your available ports. Plug the switch into one of your router ports (like one occupied by an access point now. Viola! You'll have all the ports you need.

Good luck!
