Wireless Router in Endcliffe Room

I know that the rooms in endcliffe come with an ethernet port, but would i be able to connect a wireless router to that so i don't have to use ethernet cables for everything?

Has anyone done this without any problems?

There's a program that my mate used that ran on his laptop that basically made it act like a wireless access point, I can't remember the software's name though...

Don't take my word for it, but i'm pretty sure they were going round testing wifi signals towards the end of last year in Endcliffe so I wouldn't be surprised if there was some sort of Wifi avaliable this coming year.
