    Two networks on the same pc?

    Does anyone have any experience with, or know how I could, setup a home network where I could achieve the following without using a hub?
    Computer A has broadband internet access and is connected, via 100Mbps ethernet cable, to computer B. Computer B is then, via a USB wireless network card, connected to computer C, a laptop also with a wireless network card. All computers are running Windows XP.
    I am not sure if this will be possible without a hub, but does anyone have any suggestions?

    Look into enabling packet forwarding on computer B, depending on the OS. Also, router software could be installed on computer B. You can buy a 5 port 10/100 switch for US$25-30 if you need to anyway.

    Get these: Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.
