Looking for ideas for adding a WEP router behind a ADSL/WPA router

Kiddie's bought a Nintendo DS which unfortunately can only use WEP
based security over WiFi, our current router is setup to use WPA and I've
got no desire to change it, but I was wondering about the merits of adding
a
WEP based AP/router behind my current one and limiting it's access so it
can
only connect to the Nintendo network.

Does this sound like a reasonable plan and anyone got any ideas what
hardware I could use to do this - I've wondered whether the little travel
routers have a powerful enough ruleset to block all access except to the
Nintendo network, and am currently leaning towards a Linksys wrt54g with
hacked firmware.

Any other ideas?

Cheers

Andy
