Because I need HELP!

I'm setting up a home network using a PC (Win2kPro), Laptop (Win98) and a PS2 using a Linksys Etherfast Cable/DSL Router (BEFSR41) and a few CAT5 straight through network cables.

I'm on Blueyonder Broadband with a Cable Modem (all RSJ45 connections).

Is anyone else using this kit? If so, what problems am I going to have installing it all when my kit arrives? (Forget the PS2 for now, I'm just worried about configuring/connecting as I've never set up a network before and companies don't exactly make it easy by firing off words like DCHP/MAC/Hub/Switch/WAN/LAN etc).

are u conneting straight via the router, if so only one at a time may work, if you connect via the PC, you may need to setup ICS (internet connection sharing) on windows 2000
