Such things do exist


You'd need some sort of wireless ethernet bridge -


Wireless "B":

Linksys wireless B Game Adapter, WGA11B

or

Linksys wireless B ethernet bridge, WET11


Wireless "G":

Linksys wireless G Game Adapter, WGA54G

or

Linksys wireless G ethernet bridge, WET54G



The B or G ethernet bridge will do the job fine, although the B or G "Game Adapter" may be better suited, & easier to configure.


And obviously a wireless router:


Wireless B:

Linksys wireless B broadband router, BEFW11S4


Wireless G:

Linksys wireless G broadband router, WRT54G


Although I've given Linksys examples, Netgear etc. also make wireless routers, & wireless ethernet bridges.



EDIT:
