I have an ISP which provides its connection via an rj45 cable. I have one rj45 WiFi router to which it is connected. I recently bought a new adsl cum WiFi router which has an rj11 input. Is it possible to connect the two devices in such a way that I'll be able to use the wireless network of the newer rj11 router cum modem?

What make and models are the routers?

If both routers have LAN ports you may be able to do something like this:

ISP > ---------RJ45/ethernet cable --------> [WAN port] old Wifi router [LAN port] >------- RJ45/ethernet cable --------> [LAN port] new Wifi router.

Knowing more about the routers will help but add some explanation regarding the desired connections between the devices.

Wireless may be a option as well.

The devices will all need to be appropriately configured to make your network work.
