one of your wireless routers (the one that will need to be upstairs) needs to be capible of running in "client mode" this will allow it to connect to the primary AP and bridge its wired ethernet ports to the wireless network. Not all wireless routers will run in client mode.
Also there is no need for the upstairs router to hand out dhcp addresses too, once connected to the network, dhcp can be serviced by the downstairs router.
