The network I have in my house is Belkin.  Can I use a Netgear WG602 54 Mbs Access Point?

Probably not, I have a Belkin wireless router and its manual says it only works with Belkin AP's. You might check Belkin's site or their tech support possibly though.

Hi
If your Belkin is a Wired only Router and you want to make it Wireless you can plug any Access Point it does not have to be Belkin Access Point.
However, you have to adjust the Access Point settings (like IP number DHCP etc.) to take into consideration the Wired Router setting.
P.S. Buying a new Wireless Cable/DSL Router will probably be cheaper than buying an Access Point.

To tell you the truth, I bought a second Belkin Router, thinking that it could be configured as purely as a AP.  But it doesn't
