    its only got one ethernet port. i know you can connect it via usb but its gonna be an issue in the long run when you want to add further machines to it.

    It is very unlikely that it will be necessary for it to be connected to other machines, but the router connecting to one PC via USB, and the other one via ethernet cable is OK?

    I am a little wary of this because it's so cheap, so would it be good quality ?

    General rule of thumb: Avoid cheap routers like the plague unless you like dealing with lots of random issues.

    Secondly I'd look for a router that's actually made by a networking company rather than one that's famed for soundcards.

    Yep, avoid it like the plague, creative are famed for having bad driver support, and bad support for a router is the last thing you want.
