I did the same thing in my house, but with two Linksys routers. I actually have two access points (name them different names). The laptop should connect to the one with the strongest signal. Also, shut off DHCP on one of them (most likely the remote one). If you have no connection at all wired or wireless from the second unit, check the cable. You will need a crossover cable if your unit does not support auto crossover (MDI / MDI-X).
Hope this helps.
