For the IPs I used 192.168.100.1 for the gateway and 192.168.100.2 for the local IP, as shown on the diagram (there was no device with the. However, I had to guess some of the settings like "Wireless Network Mode", "Wireless Security" (WPA2 Personal vs Personal mixed, etc), "WPA Algorithms", because I don't know how the first access point is set up, and others like "Channel Width", because the guide does not mention them. Tthen followed the instructions from here. I have flashed a bios from DD-WRT to it, I forgot which version, but the BIOS says "DD-WRT v24-sp2 (08/12/10) mini -build 14929". My idea is to connect the LAN from the powerline to my old but trusty Linksys WRT160Nv3, creating coverage for the other part of my home, and connecting the TV directly to it with LAN once again, for better performance (the powerline adapter, WRT160N and would be both behind the TV). However, the wi-fi barely reaches the TV room and it's a constant struggle, sometimes it's hard to even queue a youtube clip from my phone to the TV. Once I paired the powerline adapters, they work fine and I have connected the other end directly to my TV for now.
I have a new SmartTV in the other room and I have bought two powerline adapters to get LAN throughput for it, since we will be streaming HD and 4K content (plus, the building is reinforced concrete, so not great for WLAN).
They say "we do not offer access to the new access points, if you have any issues give us a call ". Basically my ISP has locked me out of my primary access point, ever since I switched to fibre and they installed a new router. I drew a diagram of the set up I would like to have at home.
