Default Wireless network questions

Ok, I have a question as to the best way to link up the following set up..

I currently have a wireless network at home, I run my laptop (wireless), a PC (wired), as well as a 3rd PC in another room (USB Dongle), and an Xbox360 (XBox Wireless adapter kit). I still have 2 free ports on the back of my wireless router if that is important.

If I wanted to add the following to this set up, what would be best?

Oppo BD-83
Panasonic TCP54V10

If I had the ability to also get the XBox running off of something other than the Xbox wireless adapter that would be fine, but not a big deal.

I dont yet have the 2 new additions, but im looking into how to do it, and what it would run.

Any help would be great.

I would say check your settings on the units them selves and see if they are capable of doing wireless. and if they aren't maybe see if they have any hardwire that makes them have a wireless connection. other then that I'm clueles.

I guess I should have clarified.

The wireless modem is in a totally different room than the Xbox/TV/Blu Ray set up.

I have 2 free lan ports on the wireless modem, which I mentioned because I think there are products that you plug into one of those ports then sync up to another device next to the thing you are trying to get internet too.

So again, its a How do I get 2 products (Oppo BD83, and the V10) that have lan ports on them on to my wireless network in a easy fashion. If the Xbox can be included on that thats great, if not, id still use the normal wifi connector made for it.

I got a wireless print server from Netgear that also has a 4 port switch. I use it solely to wirelessly connect my bdp and slingbox. It works very well, and I've had minimal problems with it in the last 8 months or so. I've never had the bdp hooked up through ethernet, so I don't know how the bd live download speed compares. Good luck
