hi
i am about to try that setup as soon as my 100ft cat5 cable and netgear nic arrive. from my reading, i will pop in the netgear in my dsl mechine which already have a nic and is connected to the dsl modem. setup the driver for th enic.
i will then connect all 3 pc to the switch i have. do little network config
in win98 such enable printer/file sharing, asign ip, then close my eye, cross my finger and hope it work.. 🙂
if all 3 pc can see each other and able to transfer file, i will load up sygate to enable internet sharing. believe or not, i am sharing a 56k connection right now with aol as my isp.. hehe
hope it work, will be welcome any tip and hint if i miss anything
