Hi Guys

Going to have 2 running in a friends house via rj45 leads, leave the first with the an IP of 192.168.0.2 and the other as .1 and turn DHCP off the secound router and set the wireless broadcast and security details the same on each and job done?

Or have a missed anything?

Thanks

Put them on different channels.

Yes will make sure their 3 channels apart (so I've read)

Why would you want to turn on wireless on both of the routers?

Because its a massive house with thick walls and he wants wireless conectivity in as many rooms as possible?

Then surely powerline adapters would be the best solution, no?

Would be if the house didn't have different mains rings.... Apprently these have been tried and are not a working solution..
