yep, your assumptions are correct..

All PC's will be able to get to the internet...

and all PC's will be able to access each other..;-)

Just run the LAN cable out of the back of your modem to the back of your router and go from there to your two PC's and you should be pretty well set dependent on the router...

Only thing I ran into was on installation of the SBC dsl software on the PC's, and all I needed to do there was to go directly from the modem to the PC bypassing the router until after installation of the SBC software..;-)

Give me a holler when your ready to learn about opening ports in the router for Multiplayer flight sim...;-) I've spent the better part of the past week trying to ghet mine set right.... ;D

Helpful, helpful, helpful!

Thanks Spit.  I'm sure that will save me many bewildered hours... :-X

Until I actually get the router tho', I s'pose that's it for now... :'( Stupid Texas and its' huge, open spaces; a trip to the computer store is a pilgrimage!
