Well, firstly you *don't* have to go through a router. You could, if you
wanted, conenct straight to it probably (I've connected my Newton 2100
straight into my cable modem before). However, as you probably want your
macs connected most of the time as well then this is a good idea as you
already have an ethernet hub. Are you running Mac OS X? If so then easy
peasy! Run NAT (Network Address Translator). If you can't be bothered to
look up how to use it then email me off list and I'll send you my config as
this is exactly what I do at home although I'm super busy right now so it
may be a while b4 I get round to it.
