There are a lot of useful links that you can probably use, like compatible internet providers, routers, etc. About the USB modem, I think you would need to get a USB router (don't know any though), or an adapter that would change the USB to ethernet. I had an adapter that was ethernet to USB, so I guess you can find one easily since it's the same principle, the other way around though.

Ok, first a question: Does your modem only have USB connection to PC, or does it also have ethernet? (which it really should in my opinion) If so then you can just connect the ethernet port on the modem to the input port on any ethernet compatible router using a CAT-5 network cable. then use another cable to connect the router to the PC's ethernet port. If your modem only has a USB out port then you would need either a) a router that accepts USB incoming, or b) a USB to ethernet converter.
