Re: First post - how best to connect another pc to the internet

TVM Halcyon

OK got another question. If I connect the other pc by ethernet, do I need to obtain a new setup CD? The NTL online help/support section seems to imply this but I have the setup CD obtained when we first got connected late last year. Will this still be OK?

The other PC will only be used for occasional internet use so I suppose I can live with unplugging leads, rebooting etc. until our usage clarifies itself and then make a longer term decision about siting both PCs, routers etc. We often turn our pc and modem off anyway as they aren't in constant use.

Given the above, presumably the process for connecting the new PC will be as follows: switch off this PC, remove usb cable from modem, load setup disc into new PC, connect the extended ethernet cable between it and the modem when told to do so, power up and follow and remaining instructions.

Yeah I know this is simple stuff but I've never done it before

Cheers guys
