Go get a NetGear Cable/DSL ProSafe VPN Firewall Model FVS318. Gives you a Firewall and either a Cable or DSL connection for up to 8 PCs. I have one working in my house right now.

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?
