Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on how I can approach
this requirement:

I want to feed the available internet from room B to room A,
wirelessly.

Currently, room A is DSL/router connected to an unmanaged
switch that serves my wired devices fine. Wireless is also
sufficient. But.. the DSL is scheduled to be decomissioned.

Meanwhile, I have fibre internet installed in room B. There
really wasn't a proper way to wire fibre to room A. So, I am
left with a wireless solution to send the internet to room A.

The fibre is terminated with a Deco x50, provided by the ISP.

Sure.. I can probably expense for another Deco x50, but that
would be added cost of atleast $150 that I hoped I could avoid
if I could set up a wireless bridge with existing routers.

The Deco x50 is pretty much dumbed down and can't really be
configured beyond setting its own primary IP address and the
start-range for DHCP.

I have a sr516ac that I hoped I could connect next to the Deco
x50 in room B and send the internet via wireless bridge method
to room A.

How should the sr516ac be properly connected? Should it use its
WAN port to the Deco x50, or the LAN port? And what should the
IP address be set up as?

The Deco x50 is currently 192.168.68.1 ..and begins serving
clients at 192.168.68.51 and up.

Room A is currently served with a DSL modem, an sr360n,
configured as 192.168.1.1. I have several devices that have
static IP addresses as 192.168.1.2, .8 .11 and .44

The sr360n can "see" the sr516ac during the wireless bridge
rescan. It seems that I all I would have to do is allow the
sr360n to associate as a bridge to the sr516ac. But I am still
not sure with the IP addresses need to be and which physical
ports I need to connect the sr516ac to the Deco.

Can anyone help?

I've been using Powerline ethernet adapters (PLC) for several years now, and they work fine for me.

wouldn't work. the outlets in each room have different breaker panels.

meanwhile, I opted to hardwire the feed with eth. four hrs and four patch cords later, the connection is full speed.
