I have been having a heck of time connecting two routers together. Here is the setup. One laptop, wired/wireless connection. One iPad 2. Zyxel DSL Modem that is also a wired router. NEW Asus RT-N16.

Ethernet ports are usually just relegated to connecting computers to routers to facilitate an internet connection, but they're capable of much more than that.

Whether it's an older router you have lying around or the current one you're using, there are a lot of surprising features ...
