Hooking up Wireless router to hub?
I ahve two set-ups in my office.
[DSL Line]-----[Modem]----[Wireless Router]----[Computer A, B, C]
[Computer 1]---[HUB]-----[Computer 2,3,4,5] (ALL WIRED NETWORK)
I was wondering if i can wire it up as such so that they are in one network.
[DSL Line]---[Modem]----[Wireless ROuter]---[HUB]----[rest of computers Rboth wirelessly and wired]
Would it work if hook up the HUB to the router so that I can remotely access the computers on the wired network? I guess as long as each computer has a static IP, i can access them?

You don't have to do anything. All you need to do is run a cross over cable from port 4 on the router to port 8 on the Repeater / Switch / Hub.
DHCP server is in the router and you will not need a static IP on any of the computers. The router will also assign IPs to all the computers on the Switch / Repeater.
