My internet is currently connected from another flat which is a cabled connection. Now I wanted to convert that into wireless. Can anyone can advice me on how to do that? is it possible to connect a wireless router from another router as shown below?

Well, for your desktop you will need only a wireless USB NIC to have wireless access to your PC.

If the cable coming from the other flat would be there, then just buy a Wireless Access Point [not a router] and connect it there. It would automatically give wireless access and internet.

If the cable coming from there to be removed, then you have to bridge the two routers which is not an easy thing to do, but still possible.

You don't need another wireless router at your flat. All you need is a wireless adapter (D-Link). Most new Laptop computers come with built-in adapters, but if you are using a desktop you can buy one adapter for around QR 200.

Your Wireless router in flat 1 has to be a strong one to send signal all the way to the second flat. There are 4 or 5 different types of routers, so get the best one.
