Okay cheers for the reply man. Do you think it might be easier to just disconnect my modem from the router and just plug it into the the computer via USB? If so could you tell me what i would have to do to try and set this up? If this doesnt work i will just do what you said and buy an ethernet card. Just a quick question, if i were to buy an ethernet card, would this act as my NIC? Also would i be able to get any ethernet card, or would i have to buy one which is made by my routers company?
