Usually you plug a switch into the router (Easier this way, means you always have the switch), the router serves the wireless, and the switch servers the wired.

Modem->Router->Switch->Everything plugged into switch.

Unless you want to upgrade the router anyway, even then, they do not tend to have more than 4 GB ports.

thanks 4 gb ports is enough, will the switch cause any lag, higher pings online
