Using HG633 router as a wifi extender/access point

Hello, I've got a Sagemcom router for my fibre broadband connection, which works fine for our PC, phones and Hive Home Hub. We recently bought a new Epson WiFi printer which we keep in a different room from the PC and I want to set up my old TalkTalk Huawei HG633 router in the same room as the printer to give the WiFi signal a boost (it's not convenient to have to keep moving the printer through when I want to use it as a scanner).

 

I'm having issues with actually scanning pages to the PC over WiFi - I think it's because the WiFi signal off the Sagemcom router is weaker in the room we keep the printer in, so I think setting up an extender would help.

 

Would I be able to use the instructions in this thread for an HG633 + HG635 set up to do this with my Sagemcom and HG633?

Yes, but how do you want to physically connect the two together, as this will affect the configuration required.

From the 29th of March our TalkTalk Community will move to peer-to-peer support and the TalkTalk team will no longer be here to support with queries. Don’t worry we still have plenty of ways to reach out if you need to speak to TalkTalk directly. For more details check out the link here How to contact TalkTalk Broadband - TalkTalk Help & Support
