[TriLUG] Another Plea for Wireless Networking Help

[David A. Cafaro]

Then all you need is a bridge and a switch.  The bridge will act as a
wireless connection between your switch and the wireless router
upstairs.  This one should do what you need:

Then just buy the switch of your choice and plug it into the bridge. 
That will give you enough ports for your toys (the bridge only has one
port).
