I have a guesthouse on my property and I'd like it to have WIFI using the same internet connection my main house uses. I had an installer over who installed a coax jack in the guest house and connected a WIFI range extender.
Everything seemed to work well. My main house had WIFI, my hard-wired ethernet port in my office (in the main house) continued to work well and the guesthouse had sufficiently fast WIFI. But... the primary router is in my bedroom and in the router settings I have it scheduled to turn off WIFI at a certain hour. When this happens, my hard-wired ethernet in my office still works. I assumed and really hoped that since the range extender was hard-wired, it also would continue to give WIFI even when the main router's WIFI was disabled. But, this wasn't the case.
I'm curious why and what can I do to have it work like I want?
