So move the cable outlet. It seems like it'd be a far better idea to move
the coax than it would be to screw around with the networking. There are
any number of clever ways to re-route coax cables.

Hi,
If you're technically inclined, I'd take a look and see if one of
the Linksys Linux firmware replacements will work with your hardware.
They support bridging via WDS IIRC, and that does exactly what you want.

Or, if you're lazy like me, just get 2 new wireless routers that
do WDS. I have a townhouse and I can't drill holes between the floors, so
I use WDS wireless as my backplane (with Tivo and XBox downstairs, and
computer room upstairs, along with wireless for the laptops).
