[QUOTE="chronogoof89, post: 42137"] Hi. I have a 15in 1.25ghz Powerbook g4. I connect to the internet using a cable modem + a Cat5 cable. (it has USB support too and that works also). The other computer in my house is, LOL, a 100mhz Dell Laptop. My mom uses it for surfing since our Gateway tower died. I have heard several references from people on this board that they run their other computers THROUGH their Mac's to access the internet. Is there a way to do this? The Dell obviously has a network card (not built in). I was thinking, would it be possible to run the USB from the modem to my PB, and then Cat5 between the PB and the Dell - and then both comps couldl use the internet simultaneously? Please help me! I'm tired of having to power-cycle the modem everytime I come in to go on the web and my mom has been using the Dell. [/QUOTE]
