This is what I do; just happened to read about it while I was researching routers a while back. Have a Nighthawk as my router then a hundred foot cord through the ceiling going to an Asus RT n66 halfway through the house. Have had that set up for about 2 years, I figured it would be temporary until something else came along but I have zero need to change it.
