If you have more than one computer on the internet, then It's most likely that you have come 'device' somewhere that is allocating local IP addresses to those macs (192.168.x.x or 10.0.x.x probably) - this is called Network Address Translation or NAT. This is the main function of a router really.

The sort of thing you need will have an RJ45 (ethernet) socket to connect to your existing hub/modem. If it just has a USB connection / or you don't have an ethernet hub in your setup - then you will need to go with some other alternative.
