I am hoping to share the connection with the two PCs 63987[/snapback] What you need is 2 wireless internet cards, these can be bought for around £30 each. You will also need a router which will be a little more. Wireless is the best way to do things, the other option has wires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 7 February 2005 Share Posted 7 February 2005 I have NTL broadband and we recently have got a new pc in the house. I was wondering if any of you could help me out here. I am hoping to share the connection with the two PCs 63987[/snapback] I've recently networked 2 pc's with NTL broadband. You need a Linksy Wireless Broadband Router (e.g WRT54G) or equivalent between your modem and your 'main pc. You'll need an ethernet card /connector in your PC. For your other PC(s) you need a Linksy Wireless G Adapter (e.g PCI) or equivalent thats fitted internally for each PC, I think you can get stand alone USB versions. Routers PCI Adapater You should get an internet connection on both PCs fairly easily if you follow the installation instructions. Sharing files, printers, scanners means you have to set up sharing rights which can be a bit complicated and time consuming. Beware you also need to set up router with info off the internet to stop the whole world using your PC and its contents Best of Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
