| 873411 | 2010-04-06 00:58:00 | Would I be able to get onto the internet if I connected a switch (with 4 pcs connected to it) to a single port modem? Any help is greatly appreciated :). |

| 873412 | 2010-04-06 01:01:00 | Provided that the modem is also a router (in NZ, almost all of them are) then yes - this will work fine. The notable exception to this is TelstraClear's cable modems. If this is what you have, then you'll need to buy a separate router in order to share your internet connection among multiple computers. |

| 873413 | 2010-04-06 01:02:00 | Yeah that should work fine, as long as all the PCs are set to obtain network settings automatically. | wratterus (105) | ||
