The way you picture is drawn, the wireless is on a different network than
everything else, and so you would _not_ be able to see them.

Is that router a NAT router? If so you could plug the hub directly into it
(where the XP Pro box currently is) and use it instead of the XP box for
routing.

Then everything should see everything else and be able to see the internet.
