Hello Brad,
This home networking website address was referred by the "list". It (along
with Dave Gillette's expertise) helped me solve similar home networking
problems. I ended up using Wingate to utilize my cable modem connection on
both my networked PCs. It was a free download for a 2 PC home network. It
worked flawlessly once it was configured correctly.

Good Luck,
Walter McKinley
