I have a wireless router but the range doesn't quite cover all areas.
I want to add another wireless router/access point into the mix. Will
another wireless router work as an access point? Or does it have to
have the internet cable plug in. I know I can set the upstream
connection to the other router.
And second question, where is a good place to place the other device
in terms of signal strength from the starting point?

Thanks
