Wireless Router

My room mate just got his new PC and wants to hook up to the DSL connection as well. I've always done a simple 4-port Linksys router and run a cable to the PC.

Is wireless routing worthwhile? I've noticed that the prices are fairly inexpensive now. What's the device on his end that receives the signal? Just some kind of receiver that then plugs into the NIC?

Also, is it possible to plug into the router if you desire (and not go wirless)? I'm about 2 feet from it, and would just prefer a hard connection over wireless, if possible.

Any suggestions? Worth going to? Any models that you recommend?
