Use range extender with MotionEyeOS camera.
You're looking at a creative setup, but there are some challenges. Placing the MotionEyeOS camera in an unusual location without Ethernet access is tricky, especially with a TP-Link RE200 Wi-Fi extender. You might need to connect the camera directly to the router via Wi-Fi or use a hub, which could complicate things. Also, finding an IP address for the camera on your router may be difficult if it's not set up properly. It could work if you configure the extender correctly and ensure proper network settings, but it’s definitely something to plan carefully.
The TP link can serve as a hub by connecting to the TP-LINK and running Ethernet to the rest of the setup until the camera. Simply follow the usual process of linking the extender to your primary routers, with the main router assigning IP addresses to both the extender and camera. If wiring directly to the extender isn't feasible, using the extender's Wi-Fi to link to the camera will work similarly—just ensure you remain within range of the main router for optimal signal.
