SMC 4 PORT 10/100 BASET HUB, EZNET-4DS

[pancho619]

Can anybody tell me how good this hub is. I have DSL at home, would I be able to connect this to my DSL line and have 2 computers share the same DLS line? Or am I thinking of the wrong thing here. Any suggestions, let me know. Thanks.

You mean you want to share one DSL IP to your network? If so you need a router, not just a hub unless you want to use software to do the sharing then you would need 2 NICS in one computer and use ICS or a proxy. Do some reading here in the forums and you should find the answers to all of your questions.

Thanks Wik. I want to share one DSL IP with two computers. I'm not too sure how to do that but I will take your advice and do some reading on it. Thanks again.

After you read some of these posts and still have questions go ahead and ask away. There are lots of good links in here for newbiews and I could post some but I do not have my main system hooked into the network right now and am getting kind of tired. So I will check in on this post tomorrow. There are alot of DSL posts in here though.

Will do Wik, thanks again.
