    Default Help: System Linking 2 wireless routers.

    Ok here's the problem.

    I have 2 xboxes and each one is connected to a router with wireless enabled.

    One router is connected to a computer and ICS (internet connection sharing) is used to access xbox Live.

    The other Xbox connects directly to internet via the 2nd router.

    I somehow need to connect the 2 routers wireless connections. Note a wired connection is not possible.

    I don't need xbox live while using system link.

    Basically : Xbox ----> Router-----> wireless <-----Router<----xbox

    With regular home routers you can't do that.

    You need a router which can be configured as an access point. You can get ones that you put at the edge of the signal of one router and it re-transmits the signal on a different channel. MIRO distribution sell these, Edimax is a good make and you are looking at R500 odd

    I used these in a residential hotel where some of the guests could not access the wi-fi. After some position experiments, I got it right.
