If you want Router 1 to reach other rooms, you should set your rates lower. 5ghz doesn't penetrate walls as well as 2.4.
Router 2 should be setup as Bridged mode, basically you set the gateway etc as if it is another PC connected to Router 1.
It depends on which firmware your spare router has. OpenWRT or Buffalo is the most flexible. |
I believe there more than just being smart, there's a setting you have to change/tweak for your wireless card, how aggressive your network card is roaming. This setting should be easily accessible on a PC, but probably not available on most mobile devices.
