Hi all, looking for some guidance on getting wired networking upstairs to my pcs.

Currently I have my internet connection coming in downstairs. Without running cables upstairs is it possible to connect something to my existing wifi network and then break it out to to ethernet?

Any help much appreciated.

Ethernet over Power, not to be confused with Power over Ethernet, which are NOT the same thing.

I never had a satisfying experience with EOP but I finally discovered Ethernet over Coax. Since I installed them: reliable fast connections and no downtimes.

If you have coax plugs in the needed rooms, try that instead. (I went with bridges from Giga copper).
