Your confirmation of the ports available, shows my wiring suggestion can be used.

You may well need to use the software, but on one PC only, so you can connect and setup the router, especially the wireless options. Having said that most routers have an admin access that you can connect to using the IP address of the router. The user guide will give you more details. I'd see if you can get it going without the software first - you may just need to install a user guide off the CD.

When you set up the network, remember to unplug the STB, PC and router, then switch on the STB, let it settle, then the router, let that settle and then the PC. You will then need to register the router. Check the articles on this site that give more detail on all that.
