We have a cable modem with NTL broadband. We got a laptop yesterday with wireless option and a router.
We were going to hook up the router to the modem to split the connection to the laptop and the computer. However, because our modem uses a USB connection the router is not compatible with it. The router guide says it will only work with ethernet connections. Our modem does have an ethernet connection but our PC does not.
Is the problem solved with buying a network card for the computer with an ethernet connection and, if so, how do we find out which card is compatible or do we need a different router?
