    Connect 1 Netgear to 2nd Netgear router with Internet?

    Hi

    I have a two Netgear ADSL wireless routers both DG834. I am currently using just one of them with a normal wireless Internet network setup.

    What I want to achieve is to be able to have my existing configuration above, but also be able to use my second Netgear router as a wireless adapter to connect to Xbox 360 LIVE. I did have the Microsoft official 360 adapter, but sent it back as was a bad connection as my router was so far away. Now I have moved my router to the next room as my 360, but thought that as I have a spare router that I could see if this would work.

    Internet > Netgear 1 > Wireless internet available to all my PC/Laptops > Wireless connection to Netgear 2 > Ethernet wired Connection > Xbox 360

    Thanks in advance

    Yes it's possible, what you need is to set the 2nd router as a repeater - not sure without checking the manual if that's possible on this model.
    Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."
