You can use either the USB modem or ethernet modem, but not both together. If swapping between the two, or indeed any device connected to the modem is swapped, the modem must be rebooted.

A network card is only a few pounds. You might consider adding that to your old PC. Then you can connect your modem (ethernet) to the router and then your router wired to the PC and wireless (or wired) to the laptop.
