I just bought a wireless N router and i have an old wireless G router hanging around....If possible can someone tell me if I can hook that G router up in my room away from the N router, and send internet from the N to the G. Put it this way...can i hook my non internet router (g) to my internet router(n)?

unless one can function as a wireless access point only (unlikely, only a handful do), you won't be able to do this easily. however, if they both support WDSthere is a possibility.

if they are both internet routers, there's not much hope - and you should chuck one and get an access point...

why not tell us the hardware models and versions, and we could help a little more...
