Hey, this is my first time "Trying" to set up a network and I'm running into a little difficulty... What I have is one computer hooked up to a cable modem, I went out and bought a switch, and would like to be able to have internet access on both systems. Is this possible to do without having to get a new IP address? Also, i have one more problem. I am running Win2k on one machine (although i does have 98 installed too) and win98 on the other I know there are alot of complications with networking the two. Could anyone help?
