I have one router which isn't good and bought a new good one. Now let's say this. I am going to try to install the new router, but can I have both routers installed at one time or will that mess stuff up?

Here is my full story. For the past couple years, I had this "free" router which would just send wireless internet to my computer upstairs, which works good. Now that I want to unlock the full capacities of Xbox Live, my first router doesn't ever let me play 4/5 matches. So I ended up spending a lot today on a new router and connector (Linksys) and want to know if I install Linksys ontop of my old Belkin, when I will only have the Linksys plugged in, or how I would go about doing this upgrade.

LOL. Have fun I've tried this, and failed horribly.

Oh man... that stuff is [sarcasm]soooooo much fun[/sarcasm].

I'm pretty sure you can just install your current router over the old one but don't even TRY to read manuals if you have problems b/c that seems to never work. Tech support = win .... unfortunately... but tech support will actually save time.

Can't get a hold of tech support? ... goto Best Buy and act like you are going to buy one of their routers and ask how to set it up. Those fools will tell you how to do anything for free if they think they will make some money off of commission.
