What to do with old WiFi routers?

SimonFM · 2015-06-22 21:31:10

Hey, I've accumulated a lot of routers over the years and just wondering if there's anything cool I can do with them? I really don't want to throw them out without trying first :D

If you live in a big house with multiple stories you can use them as wifi signal repeaters.

Set up different networks for different purposes ...... one could be local LAN for HTPC and others for different purposes ... all completely separate from each other and more easily managed and secured.
