How do I get internet in the basement?

Hi there's a question and although we have a wireless router in the hallway.

However, we want to have a wireless router down in the basement. We have a normal telephone box socket something (as you call that, see pictures)

My question would be how can you connect a wireless router? Do you need a DSL splitter for it? We have a 100000er line would need in the basement but not as a strong router… Would synonymous a 50000er router go?

We've already experimented and plugged in a DSL splitter and a LAN cable from router to laptop plugged to see if we somehow managed to get internet… In vain. Up in the hall then the (actually functioning router) did not work anymore. (DSL was gone, flashes). Until you did not unplug anything at the bottom, nothing worked anymore

wlan amplifier we do not want. (too bad experiences despite expensive amplifier)

Note: When testing after deem complete plugging (DSL and power) of the router at least 5 minutes wait, because until the router starts can take up to 2 minutes, the establishment of the DSL connection again about 2 minutes and finally still PPPoE approx. 30 seconds.

Directly on the telephone socket, you can only ever run a router at the same time, as this is a point-to-point connection.
Furthermore, only one PPPoE connection is possible at the same time.

The only way to solve your problem would be to connect a second router via Ethernet to the first.

What you have tried would only change (always only one router at the same time), a splitter has thus further nothing to do, this is only used if POTS or ISDN is on the line, what it is not usually today should.

You can connect to DSL (which is the TAE box in the picture) only 1 router, and that is already connected in the hallway. Here is the cable safely up in the hallway, there's another TAE box and it is your router connected.

You have 3 other options:

Pull the LAN cable from the router / hallway into the basement and connect a WLAN access point (the best option).
Set up wireless repeater in the basement, if that is still in the good Wi-Fi radio range of the router.
Use dLAN / Powerline (network via the power line). If necessary, buy devices with the right of return, as the good function depends on the conditions of the power grid.

Thank you. I understood everything very well. Too bad that there's no alternative. With ethernet is again the problem that it looks kacka again when cables are on the wall. But well, let me come up with something. Thank you! Will the question then as the best answer if possible

Repeaters would be a possibility

Thank you. Wlan repeater have worked terribly but I think that lan to lan from router to router will be the best. Only then do I have to drill a few holes in the wall for the cables. (hmm very difficult matter) Unfortunately, the dlan powerline almost did not work. They were even worse than normal routers. (Our house was built in 2004 if it makes anything a thing)

That can't be sooo difficult, you have in each case then a long-term trouble-free connection.

You do not want to drill, and you do not want to lay a line.

WLAN repeater tried… Terrible?

Since you have the repeater and router placed in an unfavorable position. Your biggest obstacle is the basement concrete ceiling, so you have to increase the repeater (with 220 extension cables), preferably in the basement room below! The router, place. Because the repeater needs good reception from the router. The router, if this has swivel antennas, then align horizontally in 2 different directions, because antennas radiate with the long side (you want to shine into the basement!). In the direction in which the antenna tip shows the radiation is very very bad, almost zero! If the router has internal antenna, then lay down or tilt the whole router. It's like radio reception, if you turn the radio antenna in the wrong direction you have bad or no reception, that's the case with WLAN! The orientation of the antennas of course also applies to the repeater, he behaves the same, he also has a directivity.

If repeater is connected with rout, then times test different SSID's (= WLAN name) assigned in the repeater, then you have a better control with which WLAN you are actually connected in the cellar.

If you have a dual-band router or dual-band repeater, the connection between router and repeater with 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz SSID can be made. 2.4 GHz penetrates concrete ceilings better than 5 GHz. And never use the same Wi-Fi channels in your entire house, always set different wireless channels permanently.

Good 5 GHz ac channels (without DFS) are channels 36, 40, 44 and 48.

Good 2.4 GHz (overlap-free) n channels are 1, 6 and 11 (do not select intermediate channels!)

With this free Android app, it can check very well, even a spot in the basement with good reception is quickly found. https://avm.de/...zapp-wlan/

tried dLAN / Powerline?

If both powerline adapters hang on the same power phase, they actually work well. Have you tried other outlets, and do not use extension cords or powerline distribution outlets!

PS:

With a Wi-Fi repeater, it should actually work well through 1 concrete pavement. Strange that you did not succeed. Incidentally, the LAN port on a repeater can be used for other devices (PC, Smart TV, …), even a LAN switch (LAN distributor) is easily usable.
