Re: joining a pc up

It *is* possible to setup internet connection sharing, and all you would need to buy is an ethernet cable (£1) BUT if you want a simple method this is not the way to go! It also replies on pc1 being turned on whenever you want to use pc2

You can pick up wired routers for under £30 now, and this would be the easiest way to do it- the vast majority work as soon as they are plugged in with little configuration.

edit: and no you don't have to tell ntl if you get a router, but ntl don't provide any support for home networks.
