Try this. It is much cheaper than when I bought it only less than a year ago.

All you have to do is configure each ethernet connection to obtain its own address, which is the easiest. This means each time you boot up your computer your card will ask the router for an address and will be assigned one. The router always stays connected to the cable modem and never needs to power off. When I had my cable modem installed, this was the way they set it up to my notebook. After the guy left, I plugged in the router and it worked without any configuration. My guess is your roadrunner connection is also assigns a new address at each login, so it will be plug and play. If you have a static address, you'll simply need to go in and change the settings. I wouldn't recommend getting help from the installation person unless they are very cool. Most will try to push an additional modem on you with a different address for a higher monthly charge, which is total BS in my opinion....
