Hi all, looking for some guidance on getting wired networking upstairs to my pcs.

Currently I have my internet connection coming in downstairs. Without running cables upstairs is it possible to connect something to my existing wifi network and then break it out to to ethernet?

Any help much appreciated.

What does the topology look like?

I would use 802.11s for the back plane

It's pretty simple, I just need to connect a camera to the wifi, but the camera doesn't have wifi. I have something a bunch of wifi access points running openwrt, then I want to basically add a wifi client that shares the network through a wire.
