Hi Digitec Community

I have moved into a long tube flat where the internet (10 Gbit) is hidden behind a metal door in a built-in cupboard in the middle of the flat 🤨. Luckily it has four LAN cables in the wall to the two outer corners of the flat.

My plan is this:

Connect three Ethernet cables from the Wingo box to the wall and put the wifi there. Then connect the fast 2.5 Gbit connection directly to my main PC with another cable. Connect the two 1 Gbit connections to an ASUS ZenWifi xt8. This way, both devices would be connected to one LAN and not just one (is that even possible?).

Do you think this will work?
Thanks for the inputs ;-)

Hi Kgretener

That sounds like a very good solution to me - there is nothing to add on my part, except: Are the cables in the wall fast enough? Maybe test it first :-)

But otherwise 👍
