    I have an ADSL connection and I wish to install a wireless router so I can use my PC and two laptops at the same time. The problem is the ADSL modem is a USB modem rather than an Ethernet modem. They supplied the board for the PC. They want an exorbitant price to change over to an Ethernet modem. Is there any reasonable way to connect a Wireless router to this setup?

    Use ICS to connect the router. You will essentially be double NATing if you do not disable the DHCP server service on the wireless router. I would.

    The following article will help you. I know you are not on Satellite, but the principal of using ICS to make a router connection is identical to your case:
