Shared Internet Connection

[rich912]

I am going to give in to my youngest daughter¿s constant nagging and provide wireless internet access for her aging F305 notebook (running windows 98) in combination with my GR114SK (XP Pro).
This seems a reasonably cheap solution.
At present I have a USB DSL modem connected (1.1 Mbps) to my notebook. Any comments or recommendations will be appreciated.

mmmh, never heard of 3COM. LOL

but the specs sounds good.

3Com are good, looks like a good buy Rich.
I take it your VAIO has wireless?

Thanks Seb. 3COM have been around since 1979....

No, it doesn¿t Kee-Lo, but I plan to connect my Notebook via the patch cable ¿ another wire to mine is no problem as it is generally static.

Ah I see what you mean...

mmh, I think it's no problem to use with both PCs the internet. But I don't know if you can acces the other PC also. (like "Peer to Peer" but via Router)

I am not sure about that either Seb, but shared internet connection is the priority and I am not sure that I really want her to be able to access my files or programmes:smileywink:
