How easy is it to get Ubuntu or Openelec to recognize my internet via a router-either wifi or direct connection.

Openelec ... anyway is easy also with Ubuntu.

With a wired connection for openelec, all I had to do was plug it in.

Great, that is what I wanted to hear.

Yes. OpenElec should just "see" most wired Ethernet connections for mainstream chipsets (which will have Linux drivers).

It will also work with a number of WiFi chipsets - and the OpenElec settings bit lets you select which WiFI network to use if that is the case. OpenElec recognises both Cabled Ethernet and WiFI on my Revo.
