    Try LInksys. I have used them for year with much success. I was an early adopter with LInksys. Use the wired router you have and add a wireless 4 port router. You just daisy chain them with a patch. I use the same process for years since I wired the basement but the rest of house is wireless. Go to www.linksys.com and look at the 54G if you want to save money. Staples, CompUsa, Best Buy or the internet for cheap money.

    Good luck.
