Ok, we have two Linksys routers in our house.
Router 1 : is a router/modem combo thats also wireless Router 2: simple 8 port/wireless router Right now Router 2 is set up with an Ethernet cable from its WAN port going to one of the 8 ports on Router 1. So its basically using Router 1 as its WAN gateway to the internet. I try to avoid using wireless whenever possible. So I wanted to move Router 2 near my PC which is on a different floor than Router 1. I wanted to know if it was possible to have Router 2 sort of have its WAN gateway set up wirelessly to Router 1. Can this be done? |

stock linksys routers don't have the capability to connect wirelessly. they only accept clients. you'd need third party firmware.
