Okay here goes...
I currently have a Linksys EA6300 wireless router and an older version of the Belkin N600 router. My current configuration is the linksys acts as my main router but then my belkin has dhcp turned off, acting as an extender (using powerline to connect the two together). However, this means I have two wireless networks in my house and have to switch between them a common problem. I have tried matching the SSID and password for both of them but devices didn't like to "jump" to get a better signal. To achieve this I know I'll need a little more clever software but I don't know how to set that up.
I have a raspberry pi and old pc which could be used to build another router which I'm happy to tinker with if I had a little guidance but whats the best way to have one network with dynamic switching?
Thanks in advance
