The short answer is that you can bridge connections and all but its complicated and the way my cricket works you would not want to connect a router of any kind. The speed is slow enough that i would not connect more than one computer even if its possible. What a pessimistic answer. Answer:
The way it was made should tell you that it's NOT recommended and probably difficult or nearly impossible to use with a router! It uses XP's dial-up networking (or better known as RAS) to make a connection to the internet... since the router doesn't have RAS, the modem would have NO way to make a connection without a computer! So, in essence, the only way is to go through the computer first... then route the traffic to the router or use ICS on your network... either is not really recommended as this modem isn't really fast enough to support more than one computer, as mentioned. So you should heed the answer! If you are only connecting to one computer, then just use ICS (Internet Connection Sharing)... be sure to have good firewalls on BOTH computers! More than one computer using the internet connection is NOT recommended as performance will suffer greatly... it's also NOT recommended connection for gamers and people using p2p, etc. Look elsewhere if you are a heavy duty user! I connected it to wireless router. You make good points about it not being made for that purpose but it's not "nearly impossible" It was very simple. Yes you have to go through the computer first, but NO it doesn't make performance suffer. Cricket broadband isn't all that great performance wise PERIOD. But if you already have it you may as well get the same inconsistant service on ALL your comp. for the same price you were paying to have it on 1 comp. My house is filled with "v-idiot gamers" and"shySpace" users and we don't have any problems.
