Hey All

I have a home computer on a cable modem. Its fast enough to the point I want to share my internet connection with my laptop. My thoughts are this. Put another NIC card in my computer, connect that NIC to a 5 port 10/100 hub and config my lappy to accept an IP addy from Win98se ICS dhcp service...plug my lappy into the 5 port hub...Happy Lappy!

Anyone see any probs with this?
All helps appreciated.

Yes, running NAT would work fine. But maybe getting a Linksys router would be easier since you don't have to have the server on all the time.
