I want to extend my wifi range via ethernet cable and have buy a desktop switch. so my setting now is

main router ----------------- desktop switch --------------------------- 2nd router

the problem is when I want to set my 2nd router since it only have 1 PORT LAN so I don't have output to connect my 2nd router to my PC T_T

Solution
You really only have 2 choices you run a second cable back to the switch to plug your PC into or you put another small switch in the second location and plug the router and your pc into it.
