Hi

i have a few older iphone hang around the house and today while i was struggling to get connection to with wirless router, i though would it be possible to use iphone(s) as a repeater or in possibly even a mesh net work ??? I would also be open to using andriod devices for this to.

thanks

I don't think there is such a thing, AFAIK.

There is. It's called an ad-hoc network.

I wouldn't go anywhere near it though, it's horribly broken and isn't designed for what OP wants.

Well that's what I meant. It's not going to do (well) what the OP wants.
