Extend internet range using network cable?

JJM — Tue, 17 Dec 2024 21:25:01 GMT

Can I extend Fibe internet range to a home office using a network cable to a wireless modem and or a home wired network? I have tried pods but the quality reduces dramatically.

Hi there @JJM, thanks for your post and welcome to the Bell Community.
Have you already tested this out?
Which modem are you using? You could also use an Ethernet cable plugged directly into the Bell modem and into the device in your home office.
Let the Community know how everything goes, and which set up you choose 🙂

In short, as @BellPatricia has said, yes you can. It might take a few technical skills, but it is possible. You can also run the pods from an Ethernet cable connected to the modem. You can also use a wireless router (provided yourself) to extend range of your Bell modem. Bell does not support any user network configuration, though.
