  • Router and Pc Help??

    First Question:
    I have a Router in my office of my house which is about 20-40 feet away from my Xbox, is it possible to hook up another Router to the Internet/Cable Box??



    Second Question:
    Could I make a Gaming Pc (Not a Laptop) have Wireless Internet, Like a Laptop in which to receive Internet?? Or Do I have to spend 3Grand on a Gaming Laptop?


  • 1. Not exactly sure. The way your original router is connected, does it look like a second could be connected that way. If not, there's always the option of a buying a repeater to strengthen the wireless signal from your original router?

    2. Well, I know there's a site where you can have a computer custom built for you and have it have an internal wireless nic. There's also just the option of buying a USB wireless nic for $20-$40. Depending on the price/brand/etc, they have decent ranges.
