Every wireless router has ports for wired connections. Typically most wireless routers can have a capacity of 50-250 wireless users at a time, and have 3-4 ports on the back for wired connections. Some routers have a usb port so you can plug your printer and easily network it without leaving a computer on.
I do not recommend netgear, i have had bad experiences with them. They're wireless routers have poor range and network cards fried 2 computers of mine.

pretty much all wireless "off the shelf" routers have 4 ports to hard wire systems to while acting as an access point. Don't buy something called "wireless access point" generally speaking since they are usually designed to hook to a router and simply supply a wireless beacon.

Check NewEgg.com for it. I am using a WRT54GR and get a great signal. All routers will have Ethernet ports for connecting your desktops.

Comp-USA is one place, or other computer stores, like at Best Buy I think has them also.
