any wireless router would do
wireless routers do have wired ports (usually 4), so you don’t need a wired router, but if you still want to use a wired and wireless router then you can set up the wired router as the main router and the wireless router as an access point

Theres is modems that can be wired and wireless at the same time, like this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as… you should check that one out or something familiar.

Linksys is the best IMO and i think most wireless routers have ethernet ports so you can plug in stuff that doesnt have a wireless card, like the PS2 and Xbox

Any wireless router will work. You won’t need to keep the old router because wireless routers also have wired Ethernet ports as well (usually 4).
You also don’t need to buy a router which states that it is for a cable/DSL modem. Those routers just have an extra Ethernet port and the router set up software is more helpful for connecting to a cable/DSL modem. It’s not worth the extra money.
For your set up, you will need a wireless router, and that’s it. The desktop physically connects to the router (usually 1 computer always does), and you can use your laptop’s built-in wireless network card to connect to the router. If your laptop doesn’t have a built-in wireless network card, then you can buy either a PC Card wireless network card or a USB one.
The router and wireless network device does not have to be from the same manufacturer.
I recommend a 108 mbps router and network card.
