Hi,
I was wondering about using the XRouter Pro to connect my DSL connection to my Imac and PC can I do that? My Imac has the OS 9.1 and my PC is Win Me.

Just set your router to do DHCP and NAT, and then set up the PC and iMac to look at the router's local IP address for their DHCP server.
The documentation with your router will explain how to do it.

Thanks P,
If I were to Incorporate wireless for a laptop would I just connect the Access point to the Xrouter?

Probably, yes.
You might be better off selling the XRouter and buying a wireless access point that does both. Hawking, DLink, Linksys, and others make a slew of products for about $170-250.
