Wifi Extender for Optimum Wifi?
BAHayman:
You can connect with your computer or phone and login, then change the WiFi MAC address of the extender/router to match the one that you logged in with.
moko:
I'm currently doing it with a simple router set as a repeater if you have auto login then your device will login automatically, if not you will be prompted to enter login info. Since technically it's a public network you don't even need a password to logon with a repeater just a password to logon your device.
ETA: i dont know how secure it is for secure transactions.

You do this with Optimum? To clarify your saying you don't need to setup the router to a pick up the right network? You just have to set router as repeater? Is that a switch on the router? Any difference between router and extender for this purpose?
