Yup. More strictly it extends the wireless network.

The dd-wrt firmware has WDS capability.

A cheap 2nd hand wrt54G on each floor, directly above each other, on a low power setting should give you good coverage over the whole house.

Doing this also allows you to plug your wired equipment (printservers, Xbox etc) into a WRT54G which is then connected wirelessly.
