yes that is what i do would it be better to use a second router
sounds like you want to wireless connect multiple devices to an existing wireless network if you have two routers you could use the second router as a wireless client bridge of the first router
What sort of router do you have now? If it's a multi-port router, why can't you put it in your room, connect the PS3 to it and have it broadcasting your wireless network from there?
will i gain any thing by using a second router instaed of a switch hub i need more then four port the host router only gives me four ports
You got to help us define what kind of network you are setting up.... it is really hard for us to guess your network situation.
Please information us how you want your network, how many devices.. and waht devices you have already.....
As what aurasd said, also if you have a very large house, doubble story etc. This will decide if you need more connecting devices as there will be signal issues.
If you need morre than 4 ports, and you router only has 4, then you will need a hub/switch. There is no gain in getting a second router.
