Ok i'm finally setting up a wireless network with my parents laptop so we don't have to unplug the adsl modem everytime one or the other wants to use it. This is what I want the network to look like:


-----internet----->adsl-modem----usb----->linux-desktop---ethernet---->wireless-router>>wireless>>laptop


Now, what will i need to do to bridge between the wireless-router and the modem? Can anyone point me out to some links for this? Will the wireless router just think that my computer is the modem? The reason i can't connect the modem directly to the router is because its a usb modem. Switching to ethernet modem is not an option.
