How do I hook two computers up to one internet service.?

Here's the deal, we have two computers set up beside each other and we want to be able to access our internet account from either one. I don't necessarily need to share files from one to the other, only have it set up to that I can be on the www researching something and hubby can also do what he needs to do on the net from his separate computer. We do have a router, which we've never hooked up, for lack of knowledge on how to do so? Please any help would be grand. We aren't trying to rip off our service provider, just wanna maybe play a game of pogo with each other once in awhile :) Thanks in advance for any advice.

Not much info on your connection, but here goes nothing. You need to set up a network with that router of yours. It takes cables called Ethernet cables, and they plug into Network Interface Cards or NICs for short on each computer. If you have a broadband modem (cable or DSL), that also plugs into the router, usually on port 1 or the port that is separate from the others. Now run the Network Setup Wizard in the Windows Control Panel on BOTH computers and you should be able to connect both to the internet at the same time.
