some wireless routers do come with an extra ethernet cable. check the box to see if it does. if it doesn't you just need to buy an ethernet cable. the router should come with instructions on what to do but basically:
the cable that's currently connected to your computer: unplug it from the computer (not the modem) and plug it into the router where it says internet/modem or soemthing like that. then in one of the otehr thernet ports plug in the second ethernet cable and plug the other end into your desktop where the modem was plugged in at.

after that it should also have instrctions for connecting the rest of your computers through wireless.

also, what store are you buying this from? they hsould have someone around that can help you and make sure you get everything you need (which is a router and an ethernet cable, dont' let them talk you into extra stuff you don't need).

oh and if you have problems setting it up their support can usually help but still post the problem here just in case.

oh yea, how many computers do you plan on connecting to it? also, are they laptops or desktops and for the laptops what model?
