Hi,

A Lynksys router, a cable modem, a network card in each machine, and a
few cat 5 cables.

Main machine goes from nic to router socket 2
Additional machine goes from nic to router socket 3
Have the cable modem go to the WAN socket on the router

Set up each machine using the internet wizard and you should be up and
running in minutes.

That's how I have mine set up.  I used a wireless router for the 2
machines I had wired and now  and I have 3 other systems (laptops)
hooked up to the same router through the wireless portion using generic
PCMCIA cards.


Thanks and have a Great Day!

Hi Folks,

As I don't have any experience with cable modems, how can a person best
"network" 2 PC's, one of which has a cable modem connection to the
internet and the other is basically a stand alone PC right now. The main
requirement is to have both machines with internet access from the
single cable modem connection?

What additional kit would be required? Hub? Cables?

Any help appreciated?

Regards,
Jerry O'Connell.
