You need to get yourself the Linksys WAG54G as this has a modem built into it, a wireless device and a 4 port hub. There are two different types of Router ythoose for ADSL and those for cable, it is not totally impossible to get your ADSL external modem to work with the router you have, although it is much easier just to buy the Linksys WAG54G as its neater and easier to set up.

Sadly the people in PC World are mostly out to make comission and 50% of them no nothing about PCs and even less about networking.

Hope the above helps though.
Thanks
