So the plan was for me to wire a 50m cat5e from my homehub in the living room, to my PC.
I was prepared to do this, until i thought of maybe adding a router between.
Would it be possible to have a 50m cat5e running to my room with the PC, then into a router which would transmit a signal, in turn increasing WiFi range and also using an ethernet cable out from the 2nd router into the PC?
Will this cause any extra latency? As i suspect all the extra runnings would effect it.
 
Any recommendations for switches? Never in my life have i used one. Complete and utter noob at networking btw.
