Connecting a USB Modem to an Internet Router

I have a laptop with Windows XP Media Centre on it.
I now have the BT line up and running on ADSL. Demon have sent me a
Speedtouch 330 modem which works OK. It is a USB modem which is a pain
'cos I only have two USB ports on the laptop and I need those for
peripherals. However I can now connect to the Internet - albeit a bit
slow.
The laptop also has an Internet port (I think) which I'd prefer to
use.
Now I want to set up a wireless router and have a Linksys Wireless-G.
Unfortunately this only has an Internet port for the modem to connect
into. But the modem only has a USB type cable.
Please can anyone advise how I can connect a USB type modem to an
Internet connection on the router.
Many thanks - CJB.
