You just need a wireless bridge. This one is pretty nice: http://amzn.com/B0056VP0KS

IMO you're best off just getting a wireless bridge - if you want to go all posh and name-brand then there's a 4-port Linksys for $50 on Amazon, but I'm seeing no-name single-port port ones for half that, or less, on eBay.

EDIT: in fact, here is a semi-reputable brand 4-port for $25 from Amazon.

>So I've been trying to ask whether this means that they won't put the cable modem in one room, and the HD DVR in a different room. If this is the case, then the installation offer won't solve my needs. I have a hardwired network printer that requires that it be physically plugged in to the Ethernet hub, and this is in a different room than the TV.

You just need to buy a wireless bridge, and place it near whatever devices need to be physically plugged in. The bridge will communicate with your modem/router (wirelessly) and allow whatever is connected to it to communicate with the interent.

This is an example of a bridge.

What you need to do is a bridge connection.

  • Connect your PS4 to the laptop via ethernet, connect the laptop to the internet via wifi.
  • Open Network and Sharing Center
  • Click Change Adapter Settings on the left
  • Select the WIFI adapter and LAN adapter together
  • Right click on either and select "Bridge Connection.

    If im correct your PS4 should be able to see the internet and get the IP address.

    I have Windows 8.1, not 7. But I did all that, and they seem to have bridged successfully, but it's still saying it's not obtaining an IP address. :/ Any idea if I need to do something else? I turned off ICS because it said I had to do the bridging.

    it seems windows 8/10 has a problem with doing this thou...

    Windows 10 has a (mobile hotspot button) click that it allows you to create a "wifi bridge" with the network you have.

    Example I steal wifi from the hotel comcast behind me, connected via wifi it sucks.. like 500kbps if im lucky. and my internal wifi on my laptop tops at like 10mpbs with an extrenal card it goes up to 25mpbs

    Using windows 10 "wifi hotspot" and an alfa/ethernal wifi adapter for even better range. I then get really nice speeds on my laptop... I then create a wifi hotspot with my own name and password and bam. Decent ps4 wifi speeds :)

    You can also use something like a wes610n or a buffalo airstation to create a wired bridge. and have it connect to 4 Ethernet devices.

You get points for MacGyver-ing together working solutions, but are you here are some better and "more proper" ways of doing it:

  1. Best case, if you can run in a single Ethernet cable from your bedroom out the living room, then get another wireless router and place that into the living room. Connect the two routers together lan (not wan) port to lan port. On the second router in the living room, going to the menus and turn off DHCP so that IP addresses will only be issued by the router in the bedroom. Boom you're done and everything will run fast and smooth.

  2. if you can't run the ethernet cable, you can also replace the ethernet cable with power line networking boxes to use your electrical wiring to create virtual ethernet cable to connect the two routers as described in number one. This will cost a bit more then the cable and its performance depends on the type of wiring and stuff in your house, but you can work really well.

  3. you can also get power line networking devices that have wireless or additional wired ethernet ports on the receiver box. For example, this one has a receiver box with four ethernet outputs that could accommodate your equipment in the living room without an additional router needed.

  4. if you still want to go the wireless route, you can get a wireless bridge unit that will connect to the wireless signal coming from your main router and then distribute that to the additional wired devices in your living room.
