I've had good luck with Netgear routers. I have an MR814, which is an 802.11b wireless router. They seem to be available very inexpensively right now -- cheaper than the non-wireless routers.
It has web browser-based configuration. i.e. type the router's address into your web browser, log in and configure the router. You can turn off the wireless access point with a single click. With wireless turned off, it is a four port 10/100mbps wired router.
Ty, Ty, TYVM!
