My house requires network extenders to extend my wireless to the far corners where I have cameras. A problem arises when I get a power outage, the ISP's network extender (the ISP calls it SAT 1) comes up before the ISP's router, grabs the signal, then I cannot connect to the internet. The only solution the level 1 help desk could offer is to tell me to unplug SAT 1 until after the router is up.
That's fine but a pain when I'm there, but when I'm more than a few miles away it's a non-starter.
So I'd like to find some reliable method of delaying the extender's powerup for a few minutes. Any suggestions?
