[QUOTE="adamburgess, post: 80621"] Hello. Hope someone can help. I know nothing at all about networking! I have a Broadband connection (using a USB ADSL modem) into my Mac and would like to share it with an XP machine through Ethernet. A sort of step by step guide would be nice. Here's what I've done so far... I enabled Internet Sharing in System Prefs. and it tells me I am sharing my connection using my modem to computers using Built-in-Ethernet. I managed to get the PC to see the Mac using a LAN (I think!) but that's as far as I got. Can it be done...? I know the computers can see each other so cables and things are fine. Thanks Adam [/QUOTE]
