connect 2 routers
I have 2 MR60 nighthawk routers (each has 2 Satellites but only need 3 of the 4). Reason for 2 routers is I have one as the main router beside my modem. 2nd router sits by TV in main living room ...

Having two routers will cause problems, like double NAT and wifi noise and interferences.
It would be best to configure the 2nd MR in AP mode and set both MR units to using far appart channels on 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.
