You’re awesome. I was jobless and depressed for sometime. I ran into your videos 2 years ago. Since then I was inspired and got into tech. Currently studying for the Security + and PMP certifications. I’m also learning a lot about hardware from your comptia videos! Tech is so fun! I want to get into blockchain as it’s amazing tech. Maybe someday you’ll cover it too. PS: I showed a couple of my students your cloud video, they were hooked! They studied IT in primary school but were blown away by how simple you made understanding it.
I don't know why I'm going to college when my professors is right here... My college professor take long to teach and guess what I don't understand shit he teach.... Thank you powercert I will remember you in my future career❤️❤️
I just want you to know I have learned so much from you. its so hard watching people just talk without animations and this has been an easy and flawless learning capability for me. Seriously I thank you for all of my certifications or if I am stuck on not understanding a particular video.
Great video. I used to flash some old Linksys routers have with the DD-WRT firmware and setup wireless bridge mode. Another use case for this is to connect devices that don't have wifi built-in but need internet access AND you can't run a cable from the device to the router. I used to have a Sony Blu-Ray player that could connect to the internet via ethernet or through a nearly $100 USB wifi adapter that only worked with certain player models. With my wireless bridge I was able to connect my Blu-Ray player to the internet without having to run an ethernet cable across the hous. Nowadays, most devices have wifi built-in so its not that big of an issue anymore, but it still can come in handy. Pretty cool stuff to learn and play with.
The video was well done EXCEPT there was no discussion about wireless signal strength. Trying to get a wireless signal from a SOHO router from one building to another is likely not possible because the signal likely won't be strong enough. Also, if the signal is only 2 bars in strength, that means all connections going through the bridge (wired or wireless) will be limited in speed to the 2 bars of signal from the distant router. I also would have liked to see the option of buying a wireless bridge to connect two routers over greater distances, which would likely be required in the example shown here to get a much stronger (and therefore FASTER) signal from one router to the other.
All you need is external signal booster or repeaters on both ends. If you have access to roof of both buildings the best choice would be directional antennas.
Hello, my dear friend, I'm sorry I'm a bit late to the party but CONGRATS on hitting 1M subs, well deserved... I am living proof that your videos are the best, I started watching your videos back in 2018, while working a minimum wage job, I went ahead and got myself 11 IT certs and now I am living the dream, over the past 7 months I bought a house and brand-new car, all this while being in the IT field for only 3 years, becoming a SYSTEM/NETWORK ADMIN was the best decision I ever made...
One thing that should be noted. The routers DO NOT HAVE TO BE THE SAME. I just bridged an old two band Linksys router with a new D-Link tri-band router. I have a desktop that relied on a small USB wireless adapter...a less than ideal internet solution. I connected to the ethernet port on the Linksys router and now have 1 gbs. The bridge mode on some routers give more than one security protocol to bridge with...WPA2 was the best choice for this configuration.
Hi can you make videos describing routing protocols such as EIGRP, OSFP etc.? I know you've explained it before but can you also make a more in depth and comprehensive walkthrough on how the OSI model works?
keep making more videos !, learning cybersecurity from Udemy and didnt understand few things in lecture on home routers and just today i watch alot of your video topics such as what is subnet , gatway , modem , router , and more to undertsand more stuff and just watched that lecture again and now i understand fully like getting more excited to learn from you about these basic networking things in a simple animated video to understand perfectly. Thanks a lot !
congrats for 1M subs, powercert! That's really well-deserved. You have helped many IT Students like me, and you can help more in the future. I really love this channel.
I am curious … I have an asus nighthawk router as well as my modem/router from ATT fiber … Will one bring the other down if I bridge them? Or am I misunderstanding how it will work
Darn. I just got a Linksys EA6350 for free that has Bridge Mode. I was hoping that was going to work for wireless to power up a dead zone 50 ft away without cables, but apparently not. Thank you.
I happen to have a spare modem during the Wifi 5 era, I convert this into a bridge and put it into my bedroom when my separate & main Wifi 6 modem is doing all the work in the living room. Mesh is nice, but a spare modem is even nicer.
i wish in the next video you woul teach us diffrence between wireless bridge mode vs AP-Client mode. pros and cons. its been bugging me for years.. thanks!
Bridge Mode is explained in this video. Basically joining two networks together. AP 'Client Mode' is acting like a USB Wi-Fi dongle but receiving packets using LAN Port(s) (Think of PCs, Printers, TVs with LAN Ports) instead of USB Ports. You can add a Network switch to the AP in 'Client Mode" to expand to extra PCs/TVs Etc... I'll give u an example. Let's say I would like to put my Printer which has a LAN port but no built in Wi-Fi, in another room to save space but I don't want to pull a network cable. So I'll just buy a cheapo Wi-Fi extender and configure it as Client mode and link to the main router via 2.4ghz. From the Extender's buttocks i patch a network cable to the printer and Voila, there you have it. In the Future I may want to add a network switch to it's buttocks to expand more LAN ports for a PC and TV.
Hello, thank you for sharing invaluable IT knowledge with us. I've been watching your videos for years, and I appreciated the way you explain things. I wonder if you be interested in making a video about MoCA WiFi. Thank you for your time.
Notable use is for WISPs to distribute Internet access to their subscribers. Vendors of these network equipment include Ubiquiti, Mikrotik, Mimosa, IgniteNet, and LigoWave.
My concern with this is people will use a couple of old routers they have kicking around (I have 2 802.11g only), which will limit performance. If they decide to buy new ones, they will likely spend more than using the proper sort of equipment. WiFi gear, designed specifically for point to point links, costs less than many new routers and will likely do a better job. They will also support PoE, so you don't need AC power nearby. We have some of those on my condo property, for security cameras.
Nice Explanation.. I want to confirm just one thing that both routers should in wireless coverage range ( distance)? And if both routers should be in wireless coverage range ( distance) that is very short, so is there any other way to connect for longer distances?
In such a case, what would be the advantage of using a router instead of just a switch? You're not using the functionality of the router anyway, aren't you?
@@PowerCertAnimatedVideos it would be a great resourceful, because our school professor is recommending this powerful channel, so i'll be waiting to your n10-007 & n10-008. Thank you so much!!
Nice. I had done differently with routers long time ago... was it, to increase main router address 192.168.1.1 for example 192.168.1.20, then set other routers to connect to that address. Can't remember anymore.

I literally forgot how. Skipped your video until I found what I was looking for. East and fast. Thank you.
I’ve got to say, because of you I have a deeper appreciation and understanding of computing.
You make (potentially) complex topics clear for people. Thank you.
Glad you think so!
Legend, this might actually be a good solution for getting my media server up and running via ethernet to my central router.
The video was well done EXCEPT there was no discussion about wireless signal strength. Trying to get a wireless signal from a SOHO router from one building to another is likely not possible because the signal likely won't be strong enough.

If you have access to roof of both buildings the best choice would be directional antennas.
and if too far apart, now u need a internet router, tunnel encryption, secure id etc etc yadda yadda
But the Wi-Fi devices are so near each other. Based on my 27" monitor it's only 5" apart.
I think he’s trying to get the basics down using a ”perfect world” scenario so people can wrap their heads around the idea of bridge mode
@@allenperera6158 Well played, sir. Well played.

I feel like a site to site von would be better for this case if the second office had a modem and could reach the internet.
Really good information, that was super clear thanks very much.
Wonderful explanation!
great video. You just nail this work man. Respect
My concern with this is people will use a couple of old routers they have kicking around (I have 2 802.11g only), which will limit performance. If they decide to buy new ones, they will likely spend more than using the proper sort of equipment. WiFi gear, designed specifically for point to point links, costs less than many new routers and will likely do a better job. They will also support PoE, so you don't need AC power nearby.

Nice Explanation.. I want to confirm just one thing that both routers should in wireless coverage range ( distance)?
And if both routers should be in wireless coverage range ( distance) that is very short, so is there any other way to connect for longer distances?
maybe using satellite
For longer distances, use a Point to Point Wireless Bridge. Some are even meant for outdoor use.
great presentation thank you
great animation and explanation!
thanks, great explanation for beginers like me
In such a case, what would be the advantage of using a router instead of just a switch? You're not using the functionality of the router anyway, aren't you?
Well a switch is not wireless. But if you're using a wire.... wired bridge mode is basically turning your router into a switch.
@@PowerCertAnimatedVideos Oh ok, thanks
if you have a router like that... KEEP IT..... you can wipe the bios and but ddwrt on it.. the wrt 54g is unlockable to some pretty neat stuff
Very great and informative video!
Also by thanks for explaining usual bridge ^^
Thanks!
What an amazing video!

this is cool. thanks for the video !
Hi! Will there be a decrease in internet speed provided by the 2nd router when in bridge mode?
It depends on how far away your 2nd router is from the main router.
Very Informative cable less 😊
excellent content
