Solve : Using 2 wireless routers?

Answer»

I am using the O2 WIRELESS box II which i had to USE when i got O2 broadband
i have a quite old 3com router that still WORKS fine

the problem is, is that the new router doesnt broadcast as far as the old one.
could i connect the 2nd router to the phone line downstairs and set it up to be a 2nd wireless transmitter using the same settings and phone line.

in my school they have around 100 wireless routers all on the same network
could i do this at home?

i know i may have written it in a confusing way but mehQuote

So, that excuses lack of clarity on your part?no, i guess it doesnt.
would you like me to rephrase my question?
or are you just going to provide unhelpful little titbits?OK -- I was unhelpful. I apologize.

The problem is, I don't know if you set up the wireless routers, that they will constitute one network. It would seem that if you set them up with the same parameters, that they should "present" as one network (like at your school).

It occurred to me that even if they don't, your hardware will have two networks from which to choose. I'd have to read more about it. At LEAST then, you could choose the network point giving you best signal strength.

That's not a good answer at all. I'm PRETTY sure someone has done this.
