You're not lost, you started here. ;-)
There are several good websites with instructions. I added some specific advice
which you might find useful.

What model Motorola modem? If it's wireless, it might include actually be a
modem / router; that will let you network the 2 computers, but let's make sure.
Please let us know if any of these suggestions are of any help. What you learn
may help others in the future, and that's the purpose of these forums.
