Plugging a Router into a Router <Help Required>

[Matt Van Dam]

Hi folks,

Quick question that I hope someone can answer as I'm a bit of a n00b when it comes to networking.

OK, I have Sky Broadband DSL using their crappy Sagem Wireless Router/Modem, this is set up in the living room of my house. Now I like to use wireless in other rooms but the signal is so weak/or my walls so thick in my new house that I cannot get a signal outside of the room.

Now to combat this I purchased a powerline adapter which works immensely well in other rooms around the house. Now my question is this;

Am I able to use my old (but very good) NetGear Router when plugged into my powerline in the other room to router mutliple traffic, i.e Laptop/PC/Xbox as my powerline adapter only has one ethernet port.

I hope that makes sense?!? Any help appreciated.

Matt
