Yeah, you can drag a CAT 5 cable between the two routers and be done with
it. One router connected to the modem is the gateway router to the
Internet. The second router will become a wire/wireless AP switch most
routers have a built in switch, like what's being done in the link. It
doesn't matter what make, brand, wire or wireless as the principle for
connecting two routers is the same.
I here there are some ways to connect wirelessly between two routers some
firmware. But IMHO, keep it simple and drag the cable. ;-)
