I don't know why you'd want to, since wireless is tons slower than wired,
and with wired you can get shielded cables that eliminate RF conflicts, etc,
yada yada yada.
But I've been told you can uplink the wireless hub / switch to a wired
router and share internet that way. I'm not 100% for sure since I've never
tried it. Ask linksys, they should know.
