Do you mean that you have a usb modem?

Hey Junior 123,

You used a plural when refering to the number ethernet ports, so I'll assume you have a 4 port router. the NIC'less PC, if you know how to use a philips head screw driver and there's a computer store in your area, you're looking at about $5 (au) for a second hand network card. Install a NIC in the second PC. Most routers do DHCP, so set your network to DHCP and your networking woes ahould be over.

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
