This product is a 'plug and play' item. It plugs 'hardwire' into an open port on your current router, and then acts as an extension (hub) to that router. The software / utility program is setup on the wireless node. I'm not certain if there is any more software needed.

Honestly, you would be better off going with a multi ported router.
It's cheaper, gives you more hard and wireless access, and stacks nicer with another router. And, if you don't want to be bongling with the hard wires, another router would just plug into an open slot and stack. Or, you could uplug 1 line and plug new router into that slot and plug the 1 line into new router and go. Just my savings of

point taken since im thinking of wireless router as well in case of expansion but the existing router has more than enough since its a 8port and only 4 are being used now.. oh well ... lets just see ;)

If that's the case, get a wireless router, stack it on the wired router, and you're ready to go. You'll use one port on the wired router, but if you've got four to spare, you're in fine shape.

And I edited my drawing up there. The spaces that made the picture all nice and pretty were taken out by the board software... :(
