This is my home network right now

Upstairs Room 1 (Linksys Router + Desktop Computer)
Upstairs Room 2 (Laptop Computer)
Basement (Laptop Computer + Desktop Computer)

I would like to add Wireless Networking to my Network.....my question is
......if i buy the Linksys Wireless Router.....and plug it in to my
network.....Will it fight with the Linksys 4 Port Router i have right
now.....Or will It realize there already is a router and basically just act
like a Hub???

Yes i know that i can just buy the Linksys Wireless Access Point......but
they are both the same price at BestBuy......and Plus i plan on adding more
computers/Playstation2.....I just wanna make before i buy it

Thanks
Rob

My Linksys works fine as a wireless access point with a 4 port hub without
the WAN connected.
