A bridge between a router and computer?

there is a router upstairs connected to a modem but is too far away to connect with an RJ45 and no built in wireless,

is there a way that i can place another router in the basement to receive the originial routers wireless like a bridge? or any new product you know of?

Update:

Im trying to make it so I can create a separate router for other devices as well connected to the original internet connection

Update 2:

also the computer is going to be connected with ethernet so i dont think a repeater works? or am I missing something?

    From what you've said, there's no reason to think a bridge is needed. A USB wireless adapter will do the trick.
