It will work, but not very well, especially if you use wireless for gaming or other data intensive work. The problem is the wireless portion. The wired portion will do just fine. Wireless suffers from the "party line effect". wireless IS a party line. Only ONE device can transmit at a time, with all the others waiting for the line to clear. Your access point must divide it's time in a daisy chain for all of the devices connected because it only has one transmitter!. You say you have 5 wireless devices, so the access point can only talk to each for 1/5th of the real time it transmits! OK, so what happens with the party line effect is the network data transfer slows down. If your machine wants to talk, first it listens and if the line is clear, you transmit. No problem. But what happens if the line is busy? You wait, of course, and when the line clears, you transmit. Again, no problem IF you are alone. Here is where the problem rears its ugly head, if someone else is waiting as you are. You both transmit when the line clears, interfere with each other and neither gets through. So what happens then? You wait for a reply and not hearing one after a timeout period, you listen and if the line is clear you transmit again, and so does the other guy, so you collide again, and again, and again until finally one of you gets out of sync and hears the other guy start to transmit, forcing you to wait. All of this represents LOST time when NO DATA MOVED. Your throughput (amount of data moved over time, NOT connection speed) drops drastically. Performance suffers the more users are sharing the line. Traffic jams are frequent, when no one is moving data for period of time. The problem is even worse if you have neighbors using wireless, Their transmissions count against you. They are not connected to your access point, but YOU have to WAIT for the line to clear from their transmissions. They are on the SAME frequencies as YOU are. You can take solace in misery loving company. YOU interfere with THEM just as much as THEY interfere with YOU. Each transmitter counts against performance. Remember only ONE talks at a time, and that is WHY the party line effect exists. A wired router is actually a traffic cop for an intersection that organizes and directs traffic for efficient traffic flow through the intersection. No one waits, there are no traffic jams, and everyone gets the maximum throughput possible. THAT is the function of a router! I suggest you simply extend your wired network using a switch (or second router with DHCP disabled. Daisy chaining routers is counter productive, unless like Cisco routers, they are designed to work in a group) to handle all of the ports you need. I have a professional 24 port Cisco router, suitable for use by an ISP (which is designed to daisy chain so 2 24 port routers are in effect a single 48 port router). I got it for pennies on the dollar at a Goodwill thrift store. So now instead of a DSL router, I have a DSL modem connected to a port on my 24 port router. I gave up on wireless when a 5th neighbor fired up yet another wireless network and MY wireless network slowed to a crawl. OK, so now you know the major drawback of using wireless. Wireless works best with only 1 device, and worst the more wireless devices you have trying to use the line.
