Touchdown! Greaser!
I have ATT Uverse, which provides a wireless signal to the house.
(I also have my VOIP box plugged into the ATT Uverse box)
I used to be able to plug my Linksys router into the Uverse box and broadcast to a further reach of my property.
I notice now that when I do so, the Uverse wireless signal is killed.
I called ATT and they said, "Nope you can't do that because it's a 3rd party device." So I asked if I can buy an ATT device to make this work and they said there was nothing.
(I don't believe the 3rd party device explanation; the VOIP is a 3rd party device and the wifi works fine with it plugged in. It must be that they are somehow blocking the ability to rebroadcast the signal)
I have googled, and read lots of technically complex ways to possibly reconfigure and make it work but wondered if anyone out there had an easier solution.
