Will Sure Signal work off a non-wired connection e.g. a WiFi booster?

I have one of these to cover one end of the house with WIFI:

and wondered if I can connect my Sure Signal with (with a cable) to its Ethernet port?

 

Alternatively, is there some adapter that I can plug into the Sure Signal's Ethernet port so that it will pick up (and connect via) my existing WIFI network?

@JohnCl8 - The Sure Signal needs to be plugged directly into the router. It can’t be connected to an extender.

Actually, I've just tried plugging it into the above Wi-Fi booster and it worked great!  A 20min test phone call later (to check it) and I had full signal throughout.

 

Why did you think that it wouldn't work?

@JohnCl8 - Thanks for the reply.

 

The Sure Signal is designed to be plugged directly in a router.

 

It's great that this has worked for you, but it's not something we can guarantee.
