Just buy yourself a cheap (cable/dsl) router & a length or two of (straight, not crossover) ethernet cable.

To set the connection up via the router.
turn the power off to the pc & modem, then connectthe ethernet cables between the modem, router & pc's (modem into wan or internet port).

then turn the power on to the modem & wait for teh synch & ready lights to lock.

once locked turn the power on to the router.
give that a minute to warm up, then boot the pc.

that's it.
