Networking with NTL Home Modem

Hi,

Im looking for some help on adding a router to my existing NTL Home Cable Modem.

At the moment i simply have the cable connection into the modem, then a usb connection to my PC. However i use xbox live which means i sometimes connect my modem to the xbox via an ethernet connection. So when alternating between the PC and Xbox i have to unplug whichever i am not using anymore and power cycle the modem.

To get around doing this i am thinking of purchasing a router which i am assuming will mean i can keep both the PC and Xbox connected at all times.

From what i understand the router would connect to the modem via the ethernet port. then the xbox would connect to one of the spare ports on the router. Is this correct or would there be anything else involved?

Thanks in advance
