What do you think of this? It's very cheap, will it work?

Yes, they should work but only at 150Mbps on 2.4Ghz WiFi N. Personally, I wouldn't buy any of them. If most/all of your stuff is Apple, then the Airport Express will act as a decent Access Point (plus has 5Ghz WiFi N) and 2 LAN ports. This will also give you some "future proofing".

What is the router ?

It's an all in one router from my ISP called 'BBox'.

As LAN bridge I won't have any advantage of the Wi-Fi N with the Airport because it's ethernet port is only 100Mbit based...

I know that one - it's from Belgacom or Scarlet. It's a rebranding of a Sagem F@st 3464. Do a Google on it and you should find some more references to a user manual (if Belgacom didn't send you one).

The good news about the AE is that if it doesn't work, send it back to Apple within 14 days (clearly you have to buy it from their on-line store)
