Got to any computer store and by a router. Linksys is pretty good, and Belkins are also okay. Any modern router that you buy today has an option that will clone your NIC's Macaddress. It fools your ISP into thinking that your computer is connected to the Modem. Just plug in the router to your Modem and plug the rest of your computers into the router. Go into the router settings (read the manual) and have it clone your original computers MAC address. If you read the router manual it should have clear directions on how to it up.
