I have a ibook, a hub , pc on winxp and dsl ethernet modem. I am trying to connect the ibook to internet via hub. What i did was connect PC to hub, dsl modem to hub and then connect ibook through hub. When I disconnect Ibook from the hub. I can connect pc to internet but when ibook is connected to hub, both machine fails to connect to Internet. Ibook never get connected to internet at all.

you said that you are using hub right; if you are using a hub then you'd need
an adittional ip address or you can just get yourself a router. "Ibook with winxp" wrote: Hi, I have a ibook, a hub , pc on winxp and dsl ethernet modem.

Ideally with a built-in stateful inspection firewall, and an integrated network switch. It will do NAT, DHCP and allow you to easily share the connection.

Check w/the manufacturer to be sure. I personally recommend the NetGear FR114P - about $80 USD, and worth it - has a stateful inspection firewall in it.
