Hi all, It's been a long time since I last posted, possibly a year+!, although I do read all the posts.
This may seem really basic to everyone, but hears my problem. I want to connect 2 macs, possibly all my macs (5), to the internet via my ntl cable modem. For the passed few years I've been connecting to the internet from my C500 via a D-link 4 port hub. My ntl cable modem is plugged into the hub for connection, this way I can stay on my small mac network (I only use the C500 online). I know this has a performance hit, as when the cable modem is plugged straight into the C500, it seems much faster. Now, I think I should be connecting my 'modem' to a 'router' and then to the 'hub' to make the internet accessible to all my macs. Is this correct? If this is correct, I know nothing about routers and could use some advice on what to get and why. best regards, Ian B (UK) C500, G3 P-Jolt320, 112mbRAM, OS9.1, 2GbHD, 2 x 9GbExtHD, Astra610S, LaserWriter 4/600, 600KCableModem - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
