Thanks so much to everyone who has been discussing my situation.  I'm sorry
but I didn't check e-mail this morning.  I just went out and bought a Belkin
G router at Office Max for $34.99 and I hooked it up and it worked right out
of the box for my desktop computers.  I did call Belkin to get the wireless
part working for my wife's laptop.  Didn't need the MAC.  A Mediacom tech
had told me to get a router and that would be all I needed.  Thanks again to
everyone who answered ... Rob
