Turn old router into wireless repeater in few easy steps. If your is a large home with a poor Wifi signal, you can boost the existing signal by simply converting an existing old router as a Wifi repeater or extender. Here in this video we’re going to see the procedure on how you can turn an existing Wifi Router that you are not using into a Wifi repeater to extend the strength of the existing Wifi signal. This will help in avoiding new internet connections from the network provider therefore reducing the broadband bills.

First thing is to check the signal strength of an existing Wifi network. To do that, take your smartphone and you should see a minimum of 30% to 40% signal strength at the place where you’re planning to place another router that would act as a Wifi repeater.

Let's say this is your home and you have a ground floor and the first floor. The aim is to repeat the wifi signal of router 1 which is in the first floor to the ground floor router 2. When you do that, router 2 will connect to router 1 and will broadcast the wifi signal through router 2 on the ground floor.  Here in the ground floor you should get a minimum of 30% wireless signal of the router 1 to make the entire process work. 

In my case this illustration suits perfectly well and I would like to place the second router which I would like to use as a repeater in the ground floor and I get around 70% signal from the first floor to the ground floor. At this location I’m powering up my second router.

Now you need to configure the second router by changing a few simple settings. Mine is a DLink router and make sure to reset it to the factory defaults. You can find the tutorial here:

After that note down the default login address, username and the password which are just behind the router then login to the router 2 dashboard.

Here find out the Wireless tab, choose Wireless Repeater and enable it. Your’s might be different but let me know the model name in the comments so that I can help you better. Now click on Site Survey to get the existing Wifi SSID and the signal strength which is broadcasted by the Router 1 which is in the first floor.

Choose it and enter its password and connect to it. Now both the routers will communicate with each other.

If your second router allows you to change the login ip address, then do it so that you can enter into these settings later when you need.

That’s it. Now you can change the second router Wireless SSID and the password. Once done, connect to the second router and enjoy the extended Wifi signal.
