you have a modem, and then to distribute that to more than one computer you have a router. So more than one computer can use the same router.
Ditto,,,we have our main desktop in the library and we run two laptops in the other parts of the house with no issues.

Well it worked...

...somewhat. Anyone trying to acces the wireless Linksys on the south side of the house has to use a password, however the north side is still unprotected. Since the Buffalo is wired directly into a LAN port of the Linksys anyone trying to access it gets in. I have to set the same password for the Buffalo but I can't access the settings screen for some reason. I keep getting a can't connect prompt. I'm thinking that it's because I have it set as a switch. Time to call Buffalo technical support.

Thanks for the input guys, much appreciated.
