Two wireless G points in the house?

I am now using a Linksys WRT 54G as my main router and access point. My
house does have cat 5 cable to some rooms and I would like to add another
wireless point for better coverage. Can I just ad the Wireless access point
to another place in the house that has the cat 5 cable that came from the
other router? Will there be any DHCP conflict in this? I sure need the
coverage.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
You can add as many as you need. They have to be connected to the main
Router (or you can daisy chain from one regular port to the another, do not
use the WAN ports) and configured as transparent devices. I.e Only the main
Router has a DHCP sever ON, all the rest DHCP server Off.
