If you want a wireless repeater you need to buy a wireless repeater. A random router bought off eBay is unlikely to perform that function. However if you can connect your two routers with an Ethernet cable you can get them to work together.

If you are trying to use the WRT120N as the far end receiver, then the answers probably no - unless you can find some third party firmware that supports Access Point Client Mode to put the router into bridge operation.

If you are using the WRT120N as a wireless N booster transmitter that is independent of the ADSL router's wireless access point, then this may help -
