The pain of transitioning from 2 decades of PC to this Mac interface is one thing. It's hard and I have no idea why this mouse behaves the way it does and why windows keep jumping around and going gray or in and out of focus, etc... But I'm sure I will eventually tame the interface and probably come to prefer it. But that's not why I'm coming to you.

Think of the OS like a big desk with all your windows laid out on it. You pull the window you want to use in front of you. Try looking at the settings in system preferences > Expose & Spaces. I've set it so my right mouse button takes me to the desktop, the side buttons show the windows in my application and the middle button shows all Windows.
It'll become easier with time.
Remember that this isn't Windows and there are fair few different ways of doing things. Windows is more like a flip pad and you just have one thing in front of you at any one time. OS X has always had designers in mind, who need to look at loads of things at once and flick constantly between 3 or 4 open applications.
About your internet problem - let us know the brand of router you're using. You might need to update the firmware on it. And what internet settings are you using for everything in system prefs?
