Broadcasting signal from Wireless router?? Part 2

Is it possible to pick up a signal with say a wireless adapter in my laptop, then plug a network cable into my laptop and run it to a second wireless router and feed other computers off of this router. In other words set up a repeater in this way.

Network-----Wireless router - - - - - - - Laptop/with wireless adaptor---------Wireless router -------other computers

My second question is, does anyone have any links on how to set up a wireless router in this kind of an existing wired environment. We have about 70 Computers, one domain, DNS/DHCP, firewall, switches and routers.

The one thing I have learned on reading is to turn the DHCP off. My company uses ip's 10.etc. Should I change the range of Ip's in the router to mach these or just leave it alone.

Thanks Regards
