Yes you can but you need reflash to firmware that allows you to do that like DD-WRT. Then follow the wiki to set it up as a repeater. Only the 2nd router needs this and the router has to to be on the list of ones that will take a reflash. (don't worry, its a big list) If you don't want to do the flash yourself eBay has them all done. (Just search for DD-WRT) Or Buffalo has a few models that ship with it installed new
