Multi-Port Access Point?

[rmicro1]

I have a Netgear 108 wireless router and I'm look for a device that I can use as a access point in another room and still use cat5 cable to that device.

Confusing, I know. The point is that I'm wanting to make a workbench in my second room but don't want to run wire (since I live in an apartment). So I'm looking for a access point that will connect to my wireless and allow me to connect wired machines to the access point.

I've found wireless bridges but they are single port. If this is the only option, could I hook up a 5 port switch and have that work?

Suggestions are very welcome.

Thanks.

I'd go with a wireless bridge and a network switch.

Is there a certain wireless bridge that be recommended?

I live in Canada and I generally use Tigerdirect.ca for most of my purchases. For 108Mbps bridges they currentlyonly offer Dlink products and I really don't care for Dlink. So if there is a more reliable product that can found, I'd prefer that.

And does anyone have experience connecting a network switch to a wireless bridge?

Thanks.
