Look at the bottom of the page, there should be a "No thanks" option. It's kind of small, the idea being that they don't want you to see it, and instead shell out on some special offer crap. :cort:

Just look around the page for that checkbox. I know there is one, because I'm a member of DriverGuide, and it didn't cost me a thing.

Here is a quick, simple LAN for two people, as that's how many it sounds like you are going to have.

Step one:
Buy a router or switch. Hubs cause packet collisions and are generally not used at LANs.

Step two:
Plug the cable modem into the router.

Step three:
Plug your computers into the router.

Step four:
To play online, open your game, go to multiplayer, select a server that you can both join and proceed to join it.

Step five:
Have fun.

There isn't any installation of stuff. As for the Network Setup Wizard, unless you're going to share files you shouldn't have to worry about it.
