    Hey everyone!
    So I am trying to connect to the internet on my PC. I have a modem and a router in my basement and the router clearly sends of a signal. My computer is up in my room. Its about a 3 level difference from my router in my basement. Now this routers signal is much to weak for my PC so I decided to put another router upstairs in my kitchen. I plugged the new router into my phone outlet in my kitchen. It booted up and it is sending off a signal within my house. So when I go on my PC upstairs and try and connect to my new router, it connects successfully with about 4-5 bars of signal. But it says no internet access. In the bottom right corner of my screen, on my task bar there is the signal bars with a yellow exclamation mark over it.

    If you guys could help me out that would be wonderful!

    Any help is appreciated!

    Thanks

    Welcome to the forum. Are you on cable or adsl I am confused by the . I plugged the new router into my phone outlet in my kitchen. The second router will have to be connected to the first by a network cable you cant have two modem/routers on a phone line

    I am running through adsl. Well my modem is downstairs and that has a router connected to it. The signal given off by that router is too weak so I put a spare router I had in my kitchen and plugged it in through my phone line and I am trying to connect my PC through that router.

    You can do that you must connect both router together pluging it into the phone is likely to kill the connection on both
