Wireless cable router range boost via 2 ADSL routers?

by scorpio7_03 . Updated 13 years, 6 months ago

I have Wild Blue internet service, which is routed through cable coax lines, and am in need of a way to increase my wireless range to my neighbor’s (see also: father-in-law) house. We happen to have two ADSL modems/routers, from CenturyLink, which are capable of wireless repeating (acting as the Base as well as the Repeater), but the cable modem doesn’t have wireless repeating capabilities that I’ve been able to discover. I have been racking my brain trying to figure-out a way to extend the range of our wireless cable modem/router, and hoped the two ADSL routers might be of some use, but can find no solution that doesn’t entail the purchase of an enexpensive Wireless-N router to be used at the repeater via an ethernet connection to my cable modem. If anyone could help me find a way to get this task accomplished with my existing hardware, or if that isn’t possible point me in the direction of a relatively inexpensive device that would allow me to, I would be Most appreciative. Thank you.
