Issue Using Power Line and Wireless

[mcubedma]

Hello. I have always had a power line internet connection in my house
which is very old and will not transmit wireless signals very well. The
power line works very well between an upstairs (main) and downstairs
computer. I just purchased a device which will utilize a wireless
connection and I added a wireless router to my configuration to have
that device have access to the internet. Now my power line connection
to the downstairs computer does not work at all. Does anyone have any
suggestions?

My configuration is cable to cable modem, cable modem to wireless
router. Upstairs computer wired to wireless router, power line router
wired to wireless router. Power line plugged into wall.

Thank you.

Use the wireless router as a wireless access point instead on your
existing wired network. You want one and only one router.
