Here is the situation I have in my house, I have a wireless router (Dlink gaming router) connected upstairs with my internet connection and computer. In my Home theater (downstairs) I have my xbox and dvd player which i want to connect to my network, but they are not wireless.

Is there any way of utilizing another witeless router to connect onto the existing network? I thought about using a wireless bridge, but they only have 1 ethernet port on them, and I need more than 1.

Thanks for the help :)

Get a Wireless Bridge and a Network Switch.

Just add a switch to your adaptor or get some AP's that have WDS enabled and add a switch to that.
