Connect a Wireless Router to my SBS Network

I got a AirLink 101 54 Mbps 802.11G Wireless Router I want to attach to my
SBS network. I'm a bit unsure as to where I need to place the router to work
best. Here's my environment......

SBS 2003 Premium SP2 w/2 Nics
ISA 2004 SP3

We use a 1.5MB T1 DSL connection for our internet access. Here is the
network topology layout...........

Inbound Internet --> DSL Router --> 10/100 5-port Switch --> External NIC
SBS Server ---> Outbound Internal NIC SBS Server ---> 1GB Switch ---> Patch
Panels

Now I use the 5-port Switch so that I can utilize my additional external
IP's for testing and being outside the firewall. I have 2 other Windows 2003
Standard member servers that I connect directly into the 1GB Switch.

So my question is where along the line do I place the wireless router. I
tried removing the 10/100 5-port switch and placing it there. I also tried
connecting it to an available port on the 10/100 5-port Switch which would
be outside my firewall which is ok for me.

I would like to use this so that we can have wireless in our conference room
to accomodate guests and clients who have laptops.
