I need help with a router issue. I finished my unviersity exams and moved back home to work for the summer. My dad has a wired router for his home network and I am wondering if it is possible to plug my wireless router into the other one and be able to use the internet wirelessly from my room.

My dad's router is an SMC7004ABR Barricade router and the one i want to plug in into it is a Network Everywhere NWR04B.

You would have to connect it with a cross-over cable, but otherwise I don't see why it wouldn't work.

 

i have a porter cable router! should i hook a x-over to it jordy?

 

It depends, is your Router 4, or 8 ohm??

also you need to know if it has the plunge option

 

Only if you x-over it to a sub basket and grind the hell out of it!!

 

It somehow figures that I start reading this thread as the "Trailer Park Boys" show starts....

 

I couldn't just use normal network cable?

 

Just go from the uplink port (shared with either #1 port or the last one) on your router to one of the ports on his router via a standard cat5 cable. It will work fine that way but I suggest turning it into a bridge
