Using 2 routers to communicate with each other

X-No-Archive: yes

I have 2 wireless ADSL modem with routers.
I have one router connected to the internet (via RJ11) and its connected to
an xbox.
I have also got another new free router/ADSL modem and want to use this
wirelessly on my main PC, instead
of using the internal wireless card (which I am currently using).

I set the SSID the same and put it on the same network IP but they can't see
each other... anyone
know what is wrong ?

Wireless routers (access points) won't talk to each other. You need a
wireless Ethernet bridge, or devices that support ad hoc mode.
