I am using these (
https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Power.../dp/B00AWRUICG) powerline adapters.
My internet service is a 4G LTE connection, I have a 4G router/modem in an upstairs bedroom where it receives the best signal. One of the LAN ports in the back of it is connected to one of the powerline adapters which is plugged into an AC outlet. My router that I use for Wifi is located on the main floor of the house, I have a powerline adapter plugged in an AC outlet near the router and an ethernet cable running from it to the WAN port on the router. From there I have a Ethernet cable that runs from the LAN port on the router that then drops through a floor vent into the basement where I have a 5port 10/100/1000Mbps switch that my Apex is directly connected to (along with some other ethernet connections that go to various rooms on the first floor) .
Note: If you are stringing routers together like this, it is really easy to really mess things up if you don't know what you are doing when it comes to IP addresses and NAT. My network is purposely doubled NATed because the router form my ISP will only allow 10 devices to connect to it. The double NATing hides everything behind the second router from the first.
Hopefully that wasn't too confusing...
