Lots of routers support this, even single-radio consumer stuff with DD-WRT but it dedicates half your bandwidth to uplink and half to clients. Others you can use e.g. the 5ghz radio for uplink and 2.4ghz for clients.
I presume there is some enterprise gear that does it too. I know there are consumer products like Eero or Ubiquiti's AmpliFi line have mesh networked repeaters. Especially the AmpliFi might be good enough for you, depending on how demanding your usage is.
- flyinghamster 10y agoI've done this exact thing with my second DIR825-C1, with a 5 GHz uplink. It works well as long as there aren't too many obstacles between the two boxes. Aside from acting as a repeater, I can plug wired devices into the second unit as well.
