BTW, Poe injectors are available on Amazon for about £10 ish, and a 5 port poe switch by tplink is about £30.

The TP Link one I just posted comes with a POE.

Be aware it's only 2.4ghz, though: this might be an issue if you are streaming/gaming?

What about porn if I watch it slowly??
No gaming or streaming for me just basic internet stuff like forums!

Me+mrsegg once borrowed a mucky video on VHS, recorded in "double play". I nearly killed myself trying to keep up.
(Managed it though )

Yes they do a faster one as well - double the price.
I would always go with the fastest available but of course depends on the router feeding it and the quality of the broadband.

I altered the settings on the last free wifi router we were given and it's now a switch. I put the router in an upstair room with line of sight to the garage.
Router2 is wired to router1.

I am using a connection to router2 at the moment, and I am in a garage about 75 yards from the house. I am in line of sight but the signal has to be better
than 75db on an wifi anuslyser app for me to be able to connect to the router. The signal drops off in heavy rain, once it's connected it works[but slowly],
but it won't make the initial connection if the signal is poor.
The signal in the house is also much better now there is a second router.

Poe allows a poe WiFi point to function with just an ethernet connection

But not as an aerial surely?
