I'm sorry, but you are mistaken. I have a home network of OS 9, OS X,
Windows, and Linux machines all using a common router. Routers work on
TCP/IP. Absolutely, positively NO special software is required for ANY
computer to use a router.

If you believe your router requires special software to work with OS 9,
you're misinformed. Give it a try and see!
