TIA...

Depends on your dimensions and building materials, but a Linksys WRT54G ought to work just fine there.
I've got a couple of Linksys WAP54G routers at opposite ends of my larger house, but am looking at putting a single AP more in the center...
Linksys WRT54G. Version 4 and below. You can get a used one on eBAy. They are LINUX based so if you need a repeater due to the size of your home
3rd party firmware canbe downloaded so you can run WDS serivce between the repeater(s) and the main router that does the DHCP or Static IP addressing.

CompUSA brand 802.11g router. They are cheap (I bought one earlier this year for $9.99 after rebate), the firmware is rock solid, and best of all they can be configured as WDS repeaters, so if one doesn't cover the whole house, you can just buy another one or two to fill in the holes. No wiring needed.

You can always get an external antenna for it.
