Wireless Access Points?

I currently use an Ethernet connection to connect my pc to my router.
However I have been informed by "her indoors" that we are to
expect a prolo=
nged visit from her daughter and grandkids, this coming summer.
Her daughter is hoping to do some work when she is down here and she
curren=
tly uses wifi at home.

I currently don't have wifi set up on my router, but I don't see a major
pr=
oblem in getting that going,
The problem that I envisage is going to be getting the wifi coverage to
ext=
end across the house.

The router is located at one end of the L-shaped house and I am
considering=
adding two wireless access points? to split the house into three areas, on=
e at the corner of the "L" and the second at the other end of the
"L"

As I said I have no experience of wifi, having never bothered to use it
and=
I would welcome any advice on the make/model of equipment to use.
The house is flooded with CAT5, so I should have no problem feeding the
new=
access points.

Many thanks

Tracey
