    Hi All, Bear with me

    I Have a Reolink 820, wired camera outside my front door, my sky router was my broadband in the hall and I have a POE adapter

    Got new broadband this week which is installed in my living room, which means the camera is now not connected for broadband

    So rather than having cables etc outside my bay window and front door, do I just need to buy

    a wired wifi enabled camera

    OR would a wifi extender with ethernet port work to enable broadband connectivity

    Thanks

    If you had it plugged into a socket in the hall then you could use a powerline adapter in the hall and local to new location of router.

    Thanks altor, I'm not too tech on this , could you explain what It means "local to new location of router"

    Yes I had the cable connected in the sky router originally so cable still there but broadband is now in the living room

    I have been on amazon and YouTube trying ti figure this out, would one of these work ?


    Appreciate your help pf course , thanks
