Do I need a router or can i plug in my cable modem directly to my hub and sharethe internet access that way?

If your ISP only provides you with a single IP address, and you want more than
one peecee to access the internet through the same ISP, you need a router or
the moral equivalent thereof (eg: ICS, Wingate, SON, etc).
What is the point of a router anyways?

To route, of course...
