Hi guys.
Im thinking about moving my computer from my office into my bedroom, but my computer does not have a wireless adapater. (By the way i already know that the wireless signal from the D-Link DSL 2740B in the office isnt good enough to provide a strong internet connection in my room anyway). I also use my phone, tablet and xbox on this wireless network but they get a poor wireless signal because they are even further away then my bedroom(they are in my little brothers room).
So i went out and bought a D-Link DSL 2750B, in the hopes that i could plug it into the phone jack in my room and then plug my computer into that in order to achieve a wired connection in my room(but on the same network). I know however that you cant have two routers on the same phone line so i was thinking i could just turn off the DHCP service on the router in my room. Would this work? Could i then connect to the internet in my room via a wired ethernet connection to the router in my room? Would this router in my room also broadcast the current network wirelessly so that my phone, table and xbox get a better signal?
If this doesnt work im going to have to swap the new router for an internet-over-powerline system, which i dont really want to do because i dont know how reliable/fast these systems are. I also dont want to do that because the router was relatively cheap, whereas those systems are more expensive.
Thanks for any help and insight you guys can give!
