I have seen a lot of questions about the use of 2 routers so sorry about this one, but at the moment i have a BT voyager 205 router (not wireless) and i have just bought a wireless router (Linksys WAG54GS) for my laptop/xbox upstairs, is there a way to keep the BT router in and just use the wireless router to get a signal to my laptop/xbox?

Cheers in advance.

Isnt it easier just to use the new Linksys router?

hey, cheers for quick reply, well the thing is, my PC doesnt have an ethernet port which is needed for it, so i kind of assumed that if i didnt need to use the internet from the wireless router i wouldnt have to hook it up with an etehrnet cable, is that right?

As long as you are going via wireless yes! You will need a USB wireless adapter or a wireless pci card.

ok, cheers, so just to make sure, it is possible to use the non-wireless adapter for my computer and connect the wireless router also just so i can get the wireless signal for my laptop and xbox?

a Non wireless adapter would be an ethernet port. And you havent got one on your pc you said.

Yea thats right,i dont have one on my PC, so ill just stick the ethernet cable from the wirelss router into the non-wireless router? sorry about all the questions, but i appreciate your help. cheers
