Question Connecting 2 comp(different os) to 1 dsl modem


Ok, I have a question. I saw a thread with something about this but here goes anyway. I have 1 Westell 6100 dsl modem. My service is through Verizon. I have 1 pc with a Linux ubuntu 7:10 Gutsy Gibbon OS (which took me over 3 hrs talk time with Verizon to get it config....."We don't support Linux" is what they first said when I called support A neighbor is giving me an "old, small" pc with a Windows OS (not sure which edition) how would I go about getting both of them on the internet with just the 1 modem (and 1 acct) ??? Do I need a router? What kind? I also need to know about any cables or anything else I may need. Can you help???
Thanks,
leelee
