You have a router, and your PC needs to be on for him to connect. Something's wrong with your setup, as you shouldn't need to use internet connection sharing, which is what your post implies.

Should be modem <> router (WAN port)

Router (LAN port #1) <> PC #1 (ethernet)
Router (LAN port #2) <> PC #2 (ethernet)

power everything off, rearrange your wiring as above, power on modem, let settle, router, let settle, then PCs.
