extending wireless range

[Guest]

I am deployed in Iraq and setting up a wireless network
for the troops. We have one civilan internet connection
and two MN-700s. How can I extend the range of the
router connected to the internet? Can the unused router
be used as a repeater/expander without being connected to
the other one? Our tents are far apart and running cable
is out of the question.

The MN700's need to be wired together. There is no way around that as the
MN700 units will not communicate with each other
wirelessly
