It will work with an ethernet router, obviously it won't with an adsl
router
;)

Is there any reason why you need to use a router though? Can you not just
connect the cable modem directly to her PC, the setup software is not
needed
if connected by ethernet. Or does her PC not have a functioning NIC?
