Hi there all, I have networked 2 computers together but I am having trouble with the second one sharing the internet connection. The first computer is using USB to connect the modem to the internet and this computer also has an onboard ethernet card which I am using to network the 2 computers together. I am using a CAT 5 crossover cable to join the computers together.....But for some reason the second computer wont connect to the internet....

Any help will be greatly appreciated...

Cheers


Simon
