You need NAT (Network Address Translator) software to share a single connection on a network. I used one with a regular dial up connection and it worked well. Now I use ISDN and the NAT software is built into the router. I don't know about ADSL specifically, but my guess is the NAT software would do the trick. You can find these software packages at ZDnet or similar software downloading sites. Esteban

hi israel, if it's just two machines you wish to link together, you can use an rj45 crossover cable. you'll need a total of three ethernet adapter cards (nics). two will go in the machine that is currently connected to asdl (host). the third goes in the other machine (client). use the crossover cable to connect the two nics. info on adding nics is available here timhiggins.com if you have win98se, i understand that you can use its ICS (internet connection sharing) feature. more ICS info is available here, israel annoyances.org the tim higgins site is as close to the last word that i have seen for tutorials on internet connection sharing. timhiggins.com i'm sure i've left stuff out, but i wanted to reply to your request as soon as i could. good luck. let us know how it goes. :) mark
