A friend wants me to help him network his 2 PCs. He wants to do file and print sharing and share an internect connection. This is the first time I've done anything like this and would like a little guidance. Here's what he has: 2 desktop PCs running Windows 98, a DLS modem, and a DSL router. I'm not sure if the DSL modem is using a static IP (if it is the ISP will only give him one) or DHCP. I know that the router will connect to the DSL modem and the 2 PCs will connect to the router. I know how to setup Client for Microsoft Network and the TCP/IP protocol. What else needs to be done? Does the router take care of sharing the internect connection?

Thanks
Robin
