Hey guys, I bought a 4 channel wifi nvr system oossxx. It works fine when the cameras are close to the nvr , but huge problems as might expected when I placed some cameras pretty far and through walls.
I've got two cameras consistently dropping. I upgraded the NVR antennas to 9DBI and the camera antennas to 5 and 9 dbi. This is how I've managed to get the system to function around a wide apartment complex. The nvr is located in an office and the cameras are located around the corners on the apartment complex.
I was wondering if it was possible to buy something like a CISCO wifi repeater, connect it to the NVR and have the WIFI repeater repeat the signal to the further apartment building where the 1 camera on the opposite side is dropping out. The NVR is already a WIFI router basically as the system demands that the cameras connect to it first and then the NVR has a WAN cable going into a ethernet switch to send the signal over the internet for remote viewing.
Is it possible that I can use the repeater as a bridge between the NVR and the cameras?
