   Hello Ed!   
      
    EV> Besides the USB device I also saw another device with a   
    EV> CAT5 jack on it. That has me thinking about using that   
    EV> device in the place where the old DSL modem was plugged in   
    EV> the Linksys Router. Using that CAT5 device I could use   
    EV> either the XP or Vista PC as I used to do.   
      
   If you are thinking of this solution..   
      
   https://www.pcmag.com/how-to/connect-phone-tablet-to-internet-    
   ethernet-cable   
      
   .. I don't think it will work for your situation.  The adapters     
   depicted in the article are usually designed to bring internet     
   *to* the phone.  But in your case, you want to tap into the     
   internet *from* the phone.   
      
      
    EV> I WANT to get back to doing 'computing' as I used to do.   
      
   Wifi or BT receiver/transmitter at your pc is easier.
