β 11y agoYes you can. There are three ways of doing this. Two are incorrect and one is the correct way of doing it.
The two switches can be paralleled together to make the light fixture respond. Both of the two switches will always have to be in the on position. Either switch will turn the light off but the second switch will not turn the light on. Very inconvenient when you enter a room through one door and leave by another.
The two switches can be wired in series. Both switches have to be on to operate the light but again if one of either switch is left in the off position the other switch will not operate the light fixture. Very inconvenient when you enter a room through one door and leave by another.
The correct way of wiring two switches to control a central light fixture is with a three way switching system (two way in the UK). The two positions have to have special three way switches in each position. These types of switches sort out the problems of leaving a switch in a certain position to operate properly. The only criteria is that there be a three conductor cable joining the two three way switch boxes together.

You can use a wireless smart plug or a Wi-Fi enabled smart light bulb to control the lamp wirelessly. Simply plug the lamp into the smart plug or screw in the smart light bulb, then connect the device to your smartphone or smart home system to control it remotely. This eliminates the need for rewiring a single pole switch for wireless control.
If a single pole switch is reconnected to become a master switch, it would gain the ability to control multiple light fixtures or electrical outlets. This means that flipping the switch on or off would control power to all connected devices simultaneously, offering a centralized control point.
A single-phase switch typically looks like a standard light switch with one toggle or button to turn devices on or off. It is used to control the flow of electricity to a single phase of a circuit, which is commonly found in residential electrical systems for powering lights, outlets, and small appliances.

To control a light with a switch, the switch has to be connected in series with the light fixture.
Yes, make sure you wire it correctly. Some switches connect across the screws and some connect like a conventional switch where the screws are below one another.

A router or a Layer-3 switch can connect 2 or more LANs together and control data flow between them.
Connect a router to the DSL modem, and if necessary add a switch to the router. Then connect all of your systems to the switch and the router.
