Wireless Network

Not sure if this is the place for this, but here goes:

Is there a device (preferably relatively inexpensive) that will allow me to, in essence, make my wired router wireless? Like perhaps a peripheral that plugs into one of the ethernet ports to send a wireless signal?

I want to set up a wireless network for my 360, but I can't talk my stepmother into letting me rplace our wired router with a wireless one, for some reason or another.

Yeah I'm not sure what her reasoning is. I tried to convince her to let me run an ethernet line across the room, that didnt work, so I offered the idea of sharing the PC monitor between the PC and the 360, and she didnt go for that either, and she didnt like the idea of replacing the router for some strange reason, so I dunno...

Yeah it sucks pretty bad. I'm not going to stop trying, but I'd like to at least try this one first - it would be the coolest since I'll be able to take the bastard in my room to play instead of having to wait to use the family TV (I can actually play online OCCASIONALLY, but it requires that everyones either gone or asleep, and that I place the system on a flimsy TV tray table thing so that the stock ethernet cable will reach my router).

And hey - this looks like what i need!

EDIT: I'm so excited that I made a diagram to show what it might look like xD



I'm just worried the speed wouldnt be up to par. . . any opinions?
