I've got my office on one end of the house with my PCs, modem, wireless router, wireless printer, etc. At the other end of the house, is all of my home entertainment equipment. Is there any way I can use multiple wireless routers (I have 2 Linksys WRT54G2, but only one in use at the moment) to share my internet connection between two routers, on one network, using a wireless network?

nope, not with a wireless router at least. you could convert one router to be running in access point mode (basically turns it into a wireless switch) but that router would have to be connected to the first router via ethernet for it to work.

if you had a wireless bridge, you could connect the wired devices on one end to a wireless device on the other (i.e. all your AV commotion to the main router)
