Currently I have Livebox downstairs and a second PC upstairs connected using wireless adapter. I'm getting more disappointed by the wireless performance so am thinking of dropping it in favour of a wired connection.
Rather than sling a cable through the house, I am contemplating buying a second router for upstairs. If I bought an an ADSL/router (e.g. Netgear 834) to use with the upstairs PC (there is a phone socket in the upstairs study), would this setup work or would there be any issues with having the livebox downstairs connected to the internet at the same time?
My initial thought is that as the Livebox works on 192.168.1.x, the second router would perhaps need to be configured on 192.168.0.x, but other than that I'm not sure what other issues there might be.
I would be interested to hear if anyone else has used another router as well as Livebox (but not linked together) with their broadband.
