Belkin Router

I currently have the Linksys Wireless Router BEFW 11S4, which the wireless portion seems not to be working, but the wired is. It has uplink capabilites, and I was wondering if the above Belkin Router is a good choice. My mother would like to make her desktop obsolete, and use only her laptop. But the printer is hooked up to her computer. She would like to have the printer in her officce for her work. I have a Linksys USB Wireless NIC (WUSB 11 ver. 2.5), and she has a D-Link (DWL-650). I would like to connect into this Belkin router wirelessly, and use the printer, but leave the old router (Linksys) there, because my dad likes it, and he does not want to switch. I think that is it, but if you need more info, I will be happy to provide. Oh, OS's are ME thru XP Pro/Home.

Thanx
