Question Incorporating wireless into a wired network....

I've got an ADSL router which is "wired". I'm thinking of adding a wireless option to this system (so I can use the PowerBook anywhere).

Is it possible to bolt on a wireless option to the the current system?

Cheers,

FYI, I've got an Origo ASR-8400 4-port router.
