    Do I need as switch, hub or a router?

    Thanks everyone for your advice. I do have some powerline adaptors which I haven't been able to try out for a different networking issue and will see if I have a free outlet for the network extender box.

    Do I need as switch, hub or a router?

    I currently have a wireless router conneted to my cable modem. The only thing connected to the router is my Verizon network extender.

    Route for range and penetration

The problem is that I now need the wireless to reach the far bedrooms which are 50ft from the router location (not movable) and must penetrate several walls (plus a piano). Currently I can get 1...

    2 Drive NAS for Home Use

    Thanks for the advice so far. I need to see what the rebate on the Duo is right now and look at the Thecus. I'm not as familiar with Thecus. I forgot another one of my main considerations and that is power consumption. Minimal power consumption is a very high priority.
