| 584037 | 2007-08-23 10:32:00 | Ok, you have a cable connection... does that go into a router/switch? If so, you should be able to assign individual IP's to each computer (usually within the 192.168.xxx.xxx range) and make your router the gateway (give it a LAN ip of say 192.168.xxx.1) |

| 584038 | 2007-08-23 10:45:00 | TelstraClear's cable modems are simply an ethernet bridge. You will need to buy a router and plug all the PCs into that. The router gets the public IP address, and the PCs get private addresses (usually in the 192.168.x.x range somewhere). Make sure you don't get an ADSL router - you need a router that has an ethernet port for its WAN connection. The WAN port on the router should be connected to the ethernet port on the cable modem. | Erayd (23) | ||
| 584039 | 2007-08-23 10:57:00 | Or if you have an old PC sitting doing nothing, build your own router using IPCop or similar. :thumbs: | CYaBro (73) | ||
