How to set up spare router to increase signal strength in other room.
Last response: in Networking
I would really appreciate anyone's help with my weak internet signal strength.
Here is my current set up:
-My landlord has his modem/router connected by a wire that runs downstairs to my desktop computer; and my desktop computer's internet is excellent.
-I have a laptop in the other room that is connected wirelessly to my landlord's router with poor internet strength.
-I have a spare linksys wireless G broadband router that is not being used.
How can I use this router to increase the signal strength on my laptop in the other room?
I would greatly appreciate anyone's help.

Best solution
connect you laptop via network wire to the Linksys, log in, and do the following
first setup your wireless security
then change the LAN IP to 192.168.254.1
lastly reboot the router, connect the wire from your landlord to the WAN port, connect the laptop wirelessly, and connect the PC via network cable to one of the four LAN ports.
