All you need is a inexpensive web-based router.  D-link makes some for about
$50.  Im using compusa's house brand I got for $30.  Works great on my 7300
and my wifes compaq.  Check out froogle.com they seem to have quite a
selection.  That plug that you mentioned is an RJ45 connector, used to link
up various network devices like computers, printers, routers, etc.
