[XP] Need help with My Network for MCE and extender use

Click for full size
My current/future network
Hello

I am running a home network for myself, Using windows MCE 2005 (Wired pc), 2 XBOX's used as Extenders (wired), 1 wireless PC. And 2 Replay Tv's (serves video like a Tivo. I have a linksys WRT54G router that I will connect to my ISP (comcast). Attached is a diagram of what i want to do. Does anyone have any suggestions on a hub or router, must be 100 base (minimum)Fairly inexpensive.... Currently I am using a 3com Office connect dual speed hub, however the MCE computer and the XBOX extenders have such a crappy network performance when it is used that I cannot watch TV over it. When i run it straight to my WRT54G it plays great So i need something that will work better than that......

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Any name brand switch should be fine and not too expensive. Here is a five port Linksys switch for $24.99 you can get it for $14.99 after rebate.
