ADSL connection share

James Tuff (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Wednesday, 9th July 2003, 15:41

Hi all, I am getting a 2nd PC and looking to share my ADSL connection with it. Does anyone know of any step-by-step guides of how to network the PC`s, plus share the connection? I know it can be done because I posted here before, but remain quite clueless about the procedures.

Many thanks!

James

Hi James

If you`re using Windows on both machines it`s fairly simple

Check out this link - www.homenethelp.com/connection-sharing.asp

Basically - I`m presuming you have an ADSL USB modem, in which case you just need network cards in both machines, a crossover cable (or network hub) and you can then share the connection.
However, the link I gave above is a lot better at explaining it! :o)

Hope this helps
Miles
