Sharing internet connection through DFI Lanparty Ultra Nf3?

[tfcmasta97]

Hey guys, my router has gone bust [wont reset, not accessible, cant login to it] so now I want to share my internet connection through my DFI Lanparty S939 Ultra D i think it's called.

Do i just hook both computers up with patch cables and click bridge connection?

You need a second NIC in the Host computer, and configure with Windows ICS.

This motherboard has 2 ethernet ports but only one [Nvidia nforce network controller] shows up in network connections. Anyone know how to get them both online?

a. Bios enable the device
b. Get the drivers

Used to have a 2 port mobo and do ICS to a hub way back in the dizzay.

Why not just spend $30 or $40 and get a new router? That price is cheaper than the hassle of setting up ICS and having to leave your PC on 24/7 for internet

Then move up a price notch and get a better router.

Here's my recommendation for a good quality router: http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16833162134
