My third computer is a Windows XP. They all have USB ports. I already bought an Linksys Internet Router. What else do I need? Please make the answer desciptive. Thank you.What do I need to split my DSL internet connection?
If the router is wireless you need wireless adapters for each computer. If the router is wired you need to have a NIC card ( network interface card)in each one. (ethernet) Thats pretty much all the hardware you need. Just run the network setup wizard in each machine and you are good to go. Set up the XP machine first it will let you make a floppy with the settings you need to set up the other computersWhat do I need to split my DSL internet connection?
Get a 4 Port DSL switch/hub Here is a link to one that Best Buy sells. You can also get them at Wal-Mart or similar stores
