I have a question in the living room downstairs is the UPC gigabox. just above in the room is the gaming pc if I expand the wifi with the part and put it next to the PC can then connect with network cable with computer ? can i then also connect the velop system to it or do i leave it connected to the gigabox as it is now. i have 4 velop satellites distributed around the house because of the coverage. i would just like to have more speed on the computer. i only need 63 gb for downloading cyberpunk.

Helpful answer
Should work. But the added value is too low. You only strengthen the Wi-Fi with it. If the wi-fi at the PC is already too weak, then you are also repeating a weak signal there. The Gigabox WLAN is already weak.
I would consider a power line solution if RJ45 from the router is not possible.

I agree. I tried something similar with the AX8. The speed from the Ethernet connection was not bad. But latency and ping when gaming were bad. With the latest Powerline magic2, the internet speed seems a little slower...but the stability is much better when gaming.....
