Right, Here goes.

I've just had a Broadband ASDL connection attached to a PC & I want to be able to use it simultaneously with a OS 10.2 Mac. Is this possible & if so, how?

Please help
:confused: :confused:

If you have a multi port router, just plug it in the back and set your mac for DHCP.

If you are lucky enough to have an ADSL modem with both USB and Ethernet problems you should be able to hook up both ports and have a simultaneous connection.

I'm thinking, though that you probably have a single port modem (probably USB if you're in the UK) and you'll need to get your hands on a router...
