OK, HELP!!!!!!

Large and extensive problem here - I am cutting out my current  PC server
(AMD K6 500Mhz) in order to give my sister a computer, and am trying to hook
up the iMac G4 as a server to take over.

*PROBLEM*:
I am connected to NTL UK Broadband via Ethernet Port - (I DO NOT USE A
CABLE/ADSL MODEM - It goes through the digital television as Ethernet). The
iMac only has one Ethernet port, and I cannot hook it directly into the hub
as NTL will only allow one active machine as the server - Thus - all other
machines on the network have to first go THROUGH the active server before
they can reach the internet.

ONLY HAVING ONE ETHERNET PORT, I CANNOT CONNECT BOTH THE HUB AND THE SET TOP
BOX TO THE IMAC!

Can anyone help? I was thinking of some kind of USB-Ethernet adaptor but out
of the ones I have, none are Mac-compatable.

Other Machines on the network:

- iMac G4 FP, 1Ghz, 256MB
- iMac G3 DV, 400Mhz, 256MB
- AMD Athlon XP 1800+ PC, 1500Mhz, 256MB
- (Sometimes) - Apple PowerMac 4400/160, 160Mhz, 32MB
- (Sometimes) - HP Omnibook 5700 Laptop, 166Mhz, 16MB
