Re: 6 pc's 1 net conection

ICS is already shared, the nic's will be configured manually, instead of auto config. yet auto config maybe be the best option as then the 2nd NIC will have a manual address of 192 etc. and the address from the server to the cable modem will be auto set via windows.

why ezactly would i need a switch if the server would be joining directly to the modem ?

cheers youth the first senaro is basically what i wanna do

This way it allows me to control the internet speed given to the network yet allowing the server/ ics machine, to utilise the full bandwidth + then i wont have to setup no stupid port forwarding etc, tis alot easier this way
