Use an old router to boost wifi signal?

qvsr46ofgc792k · 2014-11-10 21:07:30

I have two old routers in my house that came with UPC subscriptions. A technicolor TC7200 and a cisco EPC2425. I have a room in the house that the wifi signal is slow as its the further away from where my main connection and so I am just wondering is there a way of using one of the old routers to help carry that signal?…

Any advice would be great.
