I just wanted to cicle back and let everyone know I neded up getting a pair of the Netgear PowerLine1200's for my delema and they appear to be working well. One is plugged in near the Xfinity cable modem/router and the other on the top (bedroom) floor where it's connected to my WNDR3700v1. Signal coverage and bandwidth is fine.
Thanks all,

Thanks for the quick reply. I guess my question is, Is there a way for the 2nd floor router (the v1) to be TOTALLY wireless, and not run a wire up to the 2nd floor?
Thanks again,

Any wifi signal on the second floor at all?

Yes, but it is spotty.

Possibly by wifi extenders you would have play with positions in your home for the best coverage of you second floor or lan over power adaptors to use your wndr3700v1 two possible answers only the cost of doing it is your limit.
