    Is this compatible?

    Windows Update Glitch

    Go into Windows Update > View Update History, and see which update is pending. After you know which update is failing you can go into Control Panel > Installed Updates, and see if you can uninstall/cancel it.

    my laptops wireless internet is faster than my wired desktop

    Try hooking up your laptop with the wire and test the connection. You should receive the same 9mbps. It may be a case of outdated drivers on your desktop holding it back, try updating to the latest.

    giving the SECOND router in my network a STATIC IP

    Correct. Anything connected to the LAN ports on Router 2 will be able to see and communicate with one another, but not to any device on router 1. Also, make sure the subnet of router 1 is different than router 2. Ex: Router 1 = 192.168.1.xxx, Router 2 = 192.168.2.xxx

    giving the SECOND router in my network a STATIC IP

    Get the MAC address of the 2nd router and add set a static rule on the first router. As Calculagator mentioned, give it an IP outside of the DHCP scope if possible.
