desktop wirelessly enabled aswell or will i be able to plug it into the USB
port still
all-in-all i want to know what i need o get and how to fit it together so i
know in advance

Yes, you plug the modem into the router, then the router to the internet
connection line (phone line, DSL, broadband internet connection, etc.)
I don’t think you can hook up the modem directly to the desktop PC using
USB. But your desktop computer has Ethernet ports then just run an Ethernet
cable between there and an Ethernet port on your router.
You might be able to find more information here if needed:
