How do I setup two wireless networks at home?
Plug the non-Wi-Fi adapter into a power socket near your router and connect the two with an Ethernet cable. Plug the other adapter (after pairing, if necessary) into any other power socket in your home and it will create a new Wi-Fi network to which you can connect your important devices.
