I just went to the adslguide link you posted and on the 3rd photo down it clearly shows four yellow ethernet ports.

Agreed but are you saying that you can use one of these ports as an input?

Connect the cable modem to the Linksys with the existing ethernet cable. Connect the Linksys to the USR with another ethernet cable. Configure the USR as a wireless access point. Connect PCs/laptops to the USR wirelessly. Disable DHCP in the USR and enable it in the Linksys.

This setup should work. Using an ethernet connection from the USR to the Linksys, then switching off DHCP in the USR would turn the USR from a modem to just a switch on the network. You could use this for the wireless access.
