Ok. Here is the situtation. MY roomate has a crappy wireless router that he wants to use bubut I have a good wired router so I was wondering if it would be possible for us to use both routers so I can plug into my good one and he can use his to get wireless acess. If this is possible what kind of cables would I need for this setup? Thank You

why not? just plug in the good hardwired router into your modem, then plug the other one into the hardwired one via the WAN port. give it an IP your hardwired router is using, subnet, the gateway being that router, and some DNS. should work.
 
it really shouldn't be any problem, i only had to use standard lan cables when i added a wireless router to my house's wired router.
