Networking 3 computers
 

Ok got 2 easily networked, how do i do the third, another network card in the main comp?? or what?

can not network via USB because the third comp needs internet and the cable modem will not work if networked via USB (dont ask...!)

:helpme

get a hub, if not you would need another network card you can put it on either computers that is already networked, it should work.

Very Easy Solution :thumbsup

Anybody with a constant connection should have one ... even if only one machine hooked up to it.

Best $40 piece of mind you can buy .... don't trust your livelihood to Zone Alarm or some other cheap assed software solution.

Internal IP addresses are the only REAL firewalls.

Linksys is TRASH. If you want something quality go with a Dlink.

Why not get a router, plug your ADSL into the wan port and the computers into the network sockets on the router.
The router can be set to DHCP and it will issue your machines there internal IP address.
You'll need network cards in all the machines yea.
If you get a 10/100/1000 you can transfer between the machines REAL fast ;)

hmm I've never had any problems with linksys... mind explaining why you hate them soo much?

Linksys is made by Cisco ... a name I trust
their switches and routers have allowed me to make a pretty nice living ...

i use a dlink adsl modem/router combo, i just have 1 pc and a laptop that is used occasionally. If you already have an external modem just buy a switch and hook it up to the modem, otherwise id recoment getting a combo like ive got
