Network over BT connection

[Guest rsegoly]

Hi,

 

Is it possible to connect two computers (xp) with BT connection so one

shares the Internet connection with the other?

Yes. What router do you have? The current BT Home Hub can handle wired

and wireless connections.

I mean BT connection between two computers, not by a hub

 

So one is connected to Web (wired or wireless) and the other wants to

share the connection via computer to computer BT connection

Sorry westieben

 

Unless I miss your point I do not understand what you mean.

 

I have PC connected to Web via Wireless

I have another PC with no wireless, both have BT connectivity

Can PC1 share its connection with PC2 without any additional hubs or

HW?

Re: Network over BT connection

 

I am assuming you have BT Yahoo as your ISP. Most broadband customers

over the last few years have been supplied with a Home Hub free of

charge when they first take the service. Before that other modems were

provided. If you take a new 18 month contract they will quite possibly

provide the latest Home hub free of charge. Otherwise I think they cost

about £70.

 

Using a Home Hub you have one connection from the BT jack to the HUB (or

other suitable router) and then have one ethernet connection from each

computer to the Hub. The connections between the computers and the Home

Hub or USB. Ethernet is the best, but not always convenient, which is

when Wireless is used. USB provides the slowest internet connection. A

BT Yahoo Option 3 customer can have 10 email sub-accoounts (email

addresses) for no extra charge. Option 1 and Option 2 custmers can have

4.

 

If you want to Network your computers you will need to install

appropriate software. You do not need this software if you only want to

share an internet connection. What versions of Windows XP are installed

on the two computers?

....Not sure what "BT connectivity" is, but assuming that it is some

kind of network connectivity, then use ICS (Internet Connection

Sharing) to allow the wireless machine to serve internet to the wired

machine.

 

"Windows XP Internet Connection Sharing"
