My router is up stairs in someone elses room and I am downstairs. I am currently connected via wifi but I am not to happy with my connection. So my question is can I add a second router into my room that connects to the home network so I can connect via ethernet?

Many wireless routers are capable of working in tandem with another to expand broadcast range. Yours might be.
Need to provide setup details if you want a substantive answer.

What you are talking about is a media bridge, like these:

The problem is if your device was not getting a good signal, then your router, or media adapter will also not get a good signal. So most likely your speeds will not be much better, if that is what your looking for.
