Is it possible to connect my netgear wireless router to my linksys wireless router wirelessly and use the netgear as an access point/repeater?

I don't want to have to run network cable downstairs in my house and was wondering if this is possible.
 
I would highly doubt it. You could make something work cabling between the two, but that defeats the purpose of what you want...

Thanks,

sure you can...

just put a static ip on the netgear router and point it to your linksys router(going outside. EXAMPLE: DNS, and Gateway address. you should be set
