May 30, 200620 yr my main pc has 2 lan cards, one of which is used for a dsl modem.is it possible to connect my 2nd pc to the remaining lan port on my main computer and share the connection, without adding a router? if so, how?
May 30, 200620 yr Sure you can. The 2nd nic (the one NOT connected to the DSL) needs to be connected to the other computer VIA CROSSOVER CABLE. Then, in windows xp, all you do is go to your network connections in control panel, right click on the local area connection for the DSL line, hit properties, and enable Internet connection sharing from the Advanced tab.
