kazoo 0 Posted April 20, 2001 I am attempting to use my cable modem on 2 PC's. (have 1 cable modem ofcourse) 1 Win98 & 1 W2K. I'm sure this has been a topic before but can someone point me to a good site for an easy step by step process. Share this post Link to post
Cardinal 0 Posted April 21, 2001 http://www.annoyances.org/win98/features/ics.html People will suggest you use a third party program to share your connection, But I have found through trying almost all of them, that Microsofts bundled ICS works great. Follow the instructions on the above page to get it working in win9x/ME. In Windows 2000 it could not be easier. Just open up your network browser, select properties of the network card your cable uses, and select 'enable internet connection sharing on this connection' - Card. Share this post Link to post
Bursar 0 Posted April 21, 2001 Be aware that you can't connect the CM to a hub. It will need to run from a PC or via a router. For the PC route, you'll need two NICs in one machine (one for LAN, one for CM). This is how I'm running mine, and it's fine. Share this post Link to post
Exar 0 Posted April 23, 2001 er yea you can plug a cm to a hub (providing its ethernet and not usb). I have 3 computers running off one cm, all done through the hub. I purchased seperate ip's though for each machine, but that shouldnt matter when you run connect sharing. Share this post Link to post
