Would you suggest switching the custom firmware on the router from DD-WRT to something else like OpenWrt (which I know might be harder for me to configure), Tomato, Gargoyle etc.? Just to let you know, the AP I will be using is a ruckus H510 I found for really cheap on ebay. Should be good...

Thank you guys so much for the info. To be honest, I can't say I am any less confused right now compared to before. Probably more lol :P @L&LD I guess you are right, but that's the point of technology. To use it in order to create ideal solutions for each of our problems, instead of...

Sorry, I can clearly tell I messed up explaining my plan. I meant something like this -> ISP Modem (Bridge) connected with the new Router (ER-X or Mikrotik) connected with a gigabit (switch,unmanaged, optional) connected with an Access Point. Also, I understand what you mean about redundant...

Hello everyone, I'm looking for advice, so feel free to write your opinions on the matter. I have been using the modem/router my ISP provides for a year now, which is a ZTE-H108N. It doesn't have any useful features, even when logged in as a root user. Apart from this, the line is really...

@L&LD So to give some more clarifications, I do not know exactly how big the rooms are, but as far as I know, they are one-room and bathroom apartments. Similar to how hotel rooms are. If I really need to know even roughly the square footage, I will have to go and measure it myself...

Also, i forgot to mention that i also figured out I can use some powerlines with integrated Wi-Fi to do the job. Maybe 4-6 powerlines split between every 2 or 3 rooms might do the trick. Opinions?

Guys thank you all so much for your valuable information and time spent replying. So, let me give you some more info so you can have a better view of the situation. The building has 12 rooms in total, 4 rooms in the ground floor, 4 on the first floor and 4 on the second floor. All rooms are...

Hey guys, I have an old multi floor building that consists of apartments. I would like to offer the people living inside, a cheap wi-fi solution. Since the building is old, I cant run new wires through every room or even a few of them. I have a small storage room at the bottom of the building...
