Hey everyone, I’m just getting started with setting up a Draytek Vigor 2920n as a repeater to boost my Wi-Fi range in the garden and workshop. My current router is a Vigor 2762n, and after checking several guides and videos, I’m still having trouble. I thought sharing this might help someone or give me some feedback. I know Linus would handle this quickly—maybe one day he’ll make a video focused on Draytek products, which would be perfect since they’re common in my setup. Thanks, Tia!

Verified the Draytek site. Is your 2920n compatible with Draytek’s “bridge mode”? If not, but you can use Ethernet from the 2762n, this setup would perform better than “repeater mode” since full-duplex speeds are available instead of half-duplex.

I've checked Draytek.com and .co.uk, but the guidance was unclear. The 2920n does allow bridge mode, and I have an extra dual outlet in the kitchen—probably I'd switch the secondary router to bridge mode there?
