as far as a know you cant just plug a new cable modem on as the mac address is bonded to the user account
yeah with ntl you cant use usb / either at the same time as that would be giving you 2 ips
because your being a cheap bastard why not enable connection sharing ?

I suppose Modem USB to PC1 USB then PC1 RJ45 (via twisted pair) to PC2 RJ45. Would a 10/100 switched hub help? _________________
