The lone pretext you own the USB and ethernet cable is to provide you a choice on how to hook up your first computer if you be within a single computer setup. You don't use both.
Do it this instrument. Get a router (about $50) and two more ethernet cable. Run an ethernet cable from the cable modem to the router's 'Internet or WAN port'. Then run ethernet cable from the router's LAN ports to respectively PC.
let one use the ethernet cable, let that one use wireless.
use the other conputer to connect next to the first computer to connect wirelessly. srsly. idk how. but if it is a mac, i know.
Use the ethernet cable from one computer to another
The best solution is to in actuality attain a router/firewall - preferably a wired one - wireless is still too insecure. ~$40 any linksys or D-link brand are ones I enjoy used hold have great luck next to. you plug your cable modem into the WAN port, and consequently your 2 computers within one of the LAN ports. this also give an extra veil of protection against hackers.
router
No my friend, what you inevitability is a router. Try Netgear.
You own to connect the modem to the router surrounded by proclaim to own wireless internet. For a laptop or a USB port on your PC. That's what I use :)
