Get an ADSL router. Arround £120, plug and play, full speed, and you can sell 
the P90 on ebay for £50. 

If you dont want the cost, then get a USB card - which I believe should work 
(check before buying using google.com/linux). Ethernet is 
1,000,000,000,0000,000000000000000000000000000000,0,0,0,000,0,0,,000 times 
better

A higher spec PC is pointless for a router.
