I live in a big house where 5 of us share 1 DSL connection via a wireless router. The router is on one end of the house and wirel;ess reception is poor for those of us with our offices at the other end [the router cannot be moved].

Question:

Can we add another wireless router to our setup without screwing things up? Can 801.b and 801.g routers co-exist on the same network?

Thanks for your help!

That's no problem. Open up the AirPort Admin Utility, open up the Airport Help and search for "Wireless Distribution System". That will give you all the details you need. Though, you could probably figure it out for yourself. It's really easy.
