Let me get this straight.. You want your modem to be always connected to your ISP, even when your computer is off..? And you don't want to use a router.

I'm guessing that you want to share your connection with another computer even when your's is off. That can not be done without some type of hardware like a router. period.

the connection from the modem to your ISP (if its broadband) will always be there as long as it has power, but the connection from the modem to your computer only exists when your computer is on.

Very true. Also, some DSL providers allow "always on" connections. Verizon does, anyway.

If you are trying to share off the connect like barton said you will need a router to do this unless you leave your PC on and share it out like a router but once your computer goes down anyone else getting a connection from it is off-line...

I do not see your reason for not wanting a router??? If you dont mind explaining why you are thinking this maybe we can supply you with a better answer or solution to this issue at hand.

I have a Hub, both the other computer i connect to my hub is not connected to the net .

a hub will not do the trick...a router is needed. a hub is used to network your computers so crossover cables are not needed.

unless u want 1 computer to be always on (with 2 network cards) one network connecting to the hud so all other computers connected to the hub can see it and the other network card connected to the modem. But the computer must be on 24/7 for the others to have internet access.

other than that a router is th eonly way to go...i recommend Linksys or D-Link.

good luck

Hi, I've been using an Access application I wrote for an office with the front-end stored on all computers and the back-end on one of them serving as an Access file server. Now we're moving to a 2nd office 15 minutes down the road. Only one office will be open at a time, so theoretically it'd be possible to copy the back-end manually every night from one office to another, but frankly, that's pretty annoying.

I'm doing a little remoting project where home PCs act as the clients and the hosts. It all works when I'm working within my LAN, but as soon as I tried to do remoting using my internet IP address rather than my LAN IP, I get a message saying that the server actively closes the connection. When I tried to do this the first time, Windows Firewall popped up asking me to unblock the program, which I did. The second time, Norton Anti-Virus stopped...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
