Make sure you have daisy-chaining enabled and it will work fine. You'll want to place the new satellite somewhere in the basement that still has good signal to the satellite on the first floor which likely won't be that close to your Roku and Xbox if they don't have good signal from the one on the 1st floor now. But then they'll get a much better wireless connection to the new satellite in the basement then they were getting from the one on the 1st floor so you shouldn't have to worry about wiring them up through ethernet.
