Yeah, but only because the wifi extender isn't running.

My wifi extender is on the same frequency and that's
no big deal because she only uses it for net radio and
her grandson for a bit of minor browsing when he's
there so the half thruput is of no consequence at all. 

I can set it up the other way and can run a CAT5
cable to it too but haven't bothered because I'd
rather not have the small lightning strike risk.

Yeah, that's true in my case too since WiFi Analyser can see them both.

Yeah, I presume I will be able to once she returns and plugs it in again. 
I haven't bothered to power it from my place just for a test.

I haven't bothered to check it, its obvious which 
is which from the very different signal strength.

I can't because I can't get into the setting to turn that on.

There is a restart in the WiFi SNR menu, presumably for that reason. 

Bit crude but good enough.
