Router Relaying is a wireless relay mode of wireless router, which is the function of relay in the network connection, and can relay and enlarge the signal, thus extending the coverage of wireless network.

In short, the router relay is the combination of more than two wireless routers to achieve the signal relay and amplification, so that wireless network transmission coverage of a wider range. Relay multiple wireless routers, through the interval of a certain distance, so that each wireless router has a variety of signal coverage, so as to play the role of wireless signal.
