Get another N router and set it up as a repeater bridge (make sure the router supports this mode). Use the wired ports on the back of the bridge router (which will be next to your TV) to plug in your accessories. Basically, it will still be a wireless connection, but you will plugged in via Ethernet from the bridged router. The signal strength will be rock solid in an Apt. This setup works really well in my house. Played COD MW2 on my xbox for a couple hours last night with absolutely NO hiccups and I am only using a WRT54G with a Dlink N router. Eventually, I would like to get another N router, but this setup works so well that I don’t wanna screw it up.

Be aware that any bridged setup you will loose 50% connectivity speed just from the bridge.

BTW, Cossey, depending on the revision of your router, you can put DD-WRT on it. Running DD-WRT on both the N routers would be sweet and very easy to get working…

DD-WRT FTW. I’ve been running it for years.
