Hmm
So, in theory, I should be able to connect the Reefkeeper to a new/separate/2nd wireless Router, then pick up the signal through my Telus Wireless Modem ?
Even though my first router is not wireless ?
And I can connect a second router to my Modem ?

Did I miss something ? ....
Am I able to run 2 Routers ?

I guess I can, but am looking for info on how to setup this simple system

If I had the hardware in front of me, I'm sure I could just set it all up and would be done with it, as I have done in the past with all our LAN stuff

My initial post was geared @ looking for adaptors to connect the Controller to the PC Wirelessly ....

So, I can buy a wireless gaming adaptor, plug it into my controller, pick up the signal through my wireless network on my Modem - without creating a home network .... sound right ?
