Have a look at:
http://www.linksys.com/international/product.asp?coid=6&ipid=590
Note - it has to be positioned within wireless coverage...
Note2: not afiliated, etc - no idea where to purchase from .

Alternately, simply purchase a standard access point (like
http://www.linksys.com/international/product.asp?coid=6&ipid=611
) and
configure it with the same SSID & encryption but separate channel
number to
your existing wireless access point, and cable it in to your wired network.
