Hi
Your explanation of your current system is Not clear.
USB Broadband connection is Not a type of Internet connection.
If you mean that your computer is connected to an Internet Modem via USB
cable than you are out of luck since the Wireless Routers can not connect to
USB Modems.
In order to use a Wireless Router you need an External Ethernet Modem. Vista
as nothing to do with this issue, it seems that you have a Network Topology
problem.
