Hi. Can you set up additional boosters to extend the range of the Wi-Fi so connecting in series rather than linking each back to the main router? So connecting one booster wirelessly to the other booster and that booster wirelessly to the router. Is that possible? And if so is there an order you press the buttons on each of the 3 devices?? Thanks

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@SmithCJYes 2 boosters can be connected in "series" see this link but note that unless Sky is your broadband supplier you can't use WPS to the router only between Q devices.

Thanks. It's a sky set up and I already have one booster which works fine. Key question is ... Do you know which order that you press the wps buttons ie nearest booster and router together first and then the one farthest away with the middle booster or again with the router. I guess that if you get that wrong one booster won't link to the other? Appreciate the help as the link only describes pairing one booster. Thanks
