| 521842 | 2007-02-02 18:50:00 | Well yes... foe Internet Connection Sharing to work you do... you didn't state that PC #2 was going through PC #1 to get the net... And why don't you just connect PC #2 to the switch? |

| 521843 | 2007-02-04 01:01:00 | And why don't you just connect PC #2 to the switch? Because the dsl300 doesn't have a routing function. |

| 521844 | 2007-02-04 01:11:00 | Because the dsl300 doesn't have a routing function. Then what is the point in having the switch in there? why not go straight to the modem? would seem more logical... :illogical | The_End_Of_Reality (334) | ||
