RV Router
I want to build a network I can run my NAS and serve movies with a Plex server. Is there a router that can do all this and bring in the campground WiFi and a Verizon Jetpack as well?

I’ll try.
The Netgear router is setup normal, just like I would at home. Only change I ever make to it is channel.
The DD-WRT router is basically just a network adapter that outputs via a LAN cable. The Linksys router feeds the Netgear with a short network cable from 1 of the Linksys LAN ports to the Netgear Wan Port putting us behind the Netgear’s firewall.
The DD-WRT is set to Under Wireless> Basic Settings. Client and Mixed. My Sensitivity Range (ACK Timing) is at 2000, Mode is Bridged. Security tab disable SPI firewall. This stays the same
To get new network Go to Stats Tab> Wireless, Site survey at bottom of page. Click, select network from list and click the join button on right. It should take you back to Wireless Basic, and have SSID of network you joined. Next select the Wireless Security tab and select WIFI Security type and enter passphrase or key. Often it’s disabled. I apply settings then save. It will take a minute to make the “Handshake” but when the light on the front lights your in. I open a new tab and try a website, if I get it it’s done.
I have my DD-WRT router set so I can not change settings wireless, I must use a LAN cable. This means that while doing this I must turn the laptop WiFi off.
DD-WRT router is a WRT54G-TM (sold thru T-Mobile)
DD-WRT router Firmware Version DD-WRT v24-sp2 (09/08/09) mega - build 12874
Most times the routers will sit on the top shelf in the front wardrobe of our 5’ver It’s up high and there is 110 power there. But I have set them in the cabinet above the rear window. You have to look for the campground AP and work from there.
I do hope this makes sense.
