Question Home Network?

I am waiting for Adelphia to run me cable. (they are slow)
I have bought a Motorola Surfboard Cable Modem and a Network Everywhere Router so I can share the Cable between the two computers I have. My question is this, Will I be able to do file sharing and share my printer with just the router or will I have to buy a hub also? Thanks in advance.

You should be fine with the router, as long as it has more than one port. I don't know about that specific make of router, but most do.

Yes, the Network Everywhere is definitely a cheap router. Good luck.
