Gotcha. I do have a wireless router plugged into the cable modem
upstairs. But what do I need downstairs to convert the wireless to two
ethernet ports? Access Point ... Router ... Adapter ... Bridge?
Thanks!

Bridge. You can bridge one Access Point to another, but both have to be
pretty much the same brand/type (as bridging is not an 802 standard).
See your routers' documentation on how to enable bridge mode.
