Can you connect two desktop computers and one notebook computer to one router?
Yes, and you can connect many more devices. The router should have at least 4 ethernet ports to connect to. And/or you can connect wireless also. If you have more then 4 wired devices then you can use a 4, 8, or 16 port ethernet Switch to connect to the Router. Myself I have 3 desktops (wired), 3 wireless and 1 wired laptops, an X-Box 360 (wired), a Wii (wireless), a BlueRay player (wireless) and a Brother laser printer (wireless) connected to the router. (1 desktop, 1 laptop and the X-Box are hooked to the Router and the rest of the wired devices are connected to an 8 port ethernet Switch which is connected to the Router.)

What is wireless and not wireless router?
A wireless only router sends out a radio signal to all the devices, B, G and N bands. The computer/devices have to have a wirless card/dongle to work though. It only has the one ethernet port for the modem to connect to it.A Wired only router is one that only has ethernet ports connecting it to the computers/devices. There is no radio transmitter in it.Most routers have both now, usually 4 ethernet ports and the wireless radio as one, so you can connect wireless or wired devices to the router at the same time.An example world be my older tower doesn't have a wireless card and I don't want to buy a USB wireless device so I can just use the ethernet cable to connect to the router while my Laptop connects wirelessly.

How do you set up Ethernet?
First, make sure it is actually an Ethernet cord, since Phone Lines and Ethernet cords are commonly confused with each other.

Once you find this port on the back of your computer, plug one side of the cord into it, then the other side into your modem or router.

How do you share 2 computer on a network?
If you just have 2 computers and neither one is wireless then you can just buy an Ethernet switch and connect to it and then turn file sharing on and your done. If one (or both) is wireless and one is not you can buy a wireless Router with a 4 port Ethernet port on it and then you can connect the wireless one via wireless and the non-wireless one to the Ethernet port and then they can connect to each other. The Router will also give you the benefit of having a "Hardware" firewall to protect you from the internet, neighbors, etc. If you have a DSL/Cable modem then it would be similar to this: DSL/Cable modem-----Router (wireless(?))----computers, HDTV, BlueRay player, etc.
