Can I add another wireless router to my home network and get it to talk to the first one? My objective is twofold. First, I would plug the second router into the NIC of a desktop and use it to connect to the network. Second, I would like to use the second router as a range extender to fill in some holes.
If I can do it, any guidance on setup?
Thanks,
Ian
Header should read "two wireless routers"...

You don't need a router. Buy a wireless bridge, this connects to your router (via wifi) and connect the desktop PC to the ethernet port of the bridge. Setup is pretty simple, the bridge will have an utility for you to select which AP within range you want to connect to.
