Home Network Connection

Can 2 different adsl routers access the same broadband connection from 2 different phone sockets? I have my pc in one room with a adsl router connected the phone socket in that room. In my living room I get another adsl router for my xbox, xbox 360, ps3 and have that conncted to the phone socket in that room. The reason are want a direct-cable connection is to keep potential lag to a minimum for online gaming as I've heard wireless connections can introduce lag. Is this true? Also would I be able to access the consoles from pc's wireless part of router from the wireless part of the downstairs router.

Thanks

No.

Is that no I can't use both phone sockets simultaniously?

Er, mostly no.

So would my best option be have the consoles downstairs connected to the adsl router as there will potentialy be 4 conncetions and have my pc upstairs connect to the router downstairs via wireless? It's my pc I want the lowest lag BTW as that's what I do most my gaming on.

Indeed.



Unless there's any interference or issue with the wireless, you won't see any lag.

What do you mean exactly by interference and if there is interference is there any thing I could buy, add or do to get round the interference?

Thanks
