Anybody try to run two DSL routers, same model with one service?
Getting to much interference with the wireless, was wondering if I put a new router on the other end of the house it would work. Two actiontec's one service.
Anybody?

Thanks

Are you saying two DSL modems/routers on the same phone system?
One hooked to one phone jack. Another connected to another?

Not sure if that would work.

I'd try going 802.11a if you're getting too much interference with B or G.
Lots of things run on the same frequency as B/G (cordless phones, microwaves, bluetooth, logitech wireless gamepads, etc...) I don't have any issues with those 2.4GHz items interfering with my Linksys WRT54GS, but I know some people have issues with those types of items.

You could also get powerline "bridges" to connect from one section to the other.
I've done that before in house that had too much metal duct work in the area they wanted to put a PC in. We couldn't get wireless to work right because of that.
