Going wireless

Currently have an ADSL broadband connection and am using a Netgear DG814
Modem/router. I would like to go wireless but do not know much about
wireless. Is it possible to plug a wireless access point into the DG814 and
then use it as a wireless modem/router?

Yes theres no problem with that... exept you will have to connect it to
your PC first using the ethernet port and a crossover cable to configure
it. Once it is set up you can plug it directly into the router, again with
a crossover cable. Any further configuration can now be conducted over the
wireless link.
