    Hi all,
    I'm temporarily staying with my father and I'm trying to connect my wireless router to his wired router so as not to disturb his setup yet send a internet signal to the other room where my PC is. I get a wireless signal but it won't let me connect to the internet. If I plug into the back of his router it works fine. Should I be able to plug my wireless router into his and get my internet?
