Reply to "Wi-Fi DCS Update from MTH"

I have been using the MTH DCS WIFI for a couple of weeks now utilizing the Wired Ethernet Network.  I have a great WIFI signal in my train room but I was having problems accessing my Home WIFI.   I really didn't want to use the MTH Network because of the inability to access the internet while operating in that mode. My router is in a room on the other side of the house so it wasn't practical to run a Ethernet cable over that long distance.  I got around this by using a Cisco Wireless-N Gaming and Video Adapter, Model WET610N that I had originally purchased years ago to access my DirectTV receiver and was no longer using because of technology advances made by DirectTV since then. 

Just had to place the adapter under the table and plug the Ethernet cable into the adapter and plug the other end into the DCS WIFI Module and problem solved. The WET610N receives the wireless signal from my home router and transfers the signal to the DCS Module via the Ethernet port.

The Model 610 Adapter that I used is one of many that are available on the market.  There are also WIFI range extenders that are available.  Just make sure that they have an Ethernet port available.  Hope this helps others that  are having difficulties accessing their Home WIFI in their train room.
