Hi, I need to connect 2 Pc's together and I've read how to do it using the crossover cable connection, so this would not be an issue, but everywhere i've read, i've seen that the ADSL connection is through a switch/hub while i am using a USB modem. So my question is, how can i share the ADSL connection between the two pcs and also, will I be able to connect both pcs to the internet at the same time, or will it be only one pc at a time? It really bothers me as I cannot afford to buy any more material than the crossover cable and the NIC cards. Thanks for helping me out.
