The laptop, which is wireless is connected to a second router running dd-wrt to extend the wifi as I don't get a good signal at the other end of the house.
I have a powerline adaptor that the xbox is connected to, but I've now added a few other things that I would like to connect.

So ideally a 5 port gigabit switch with an AP for the laptop/phone etc.

Anyone know of anything like it?

TIA.

Probably be cheaper or the same price to just buy a router with gigabit LAN and use dd-wrt in repeater mode?
 
Need to experiment with my existing router, I take it I can simply plug the cat5 cable from the powerline adapter to the wan port of the router, set the router to repeater mode as you said above, or something else and bam it'll work?
