Help configuring 2 routers

AndyLao1031

I have a D-Link DIR-524--------http://www.dlink.co.in/products/?pid=465

             TP-Link TL-WR1043ND V2--------http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/details/?categoryid=238&model=TL-WR1043ND

Is it possible to have both routers working on the same SSID so that when i move from room to room it can automatically choose best network. If so what are the steps to it. I have searched online but their instructions weren't so clear

I am doing this because the wireless coverage in my house isn't that good

What you actually need is a range extender/repeater.

Well like mopman said, really you're after a range extender.

You can however configure routers to work this way with relative ease - however unless they both have WDS compatibility, you'll need to connect them together via ethernet (and even if they do, WDS is a finnicky thing and it still might not work).
