Hi,
We currently have a network of 4 - 10 computers, & use internet connection sharing for internet access & email. We are about to change to ADSL, & I was wondering if anyone knows whether connection sharing is possible through ADSL or if we will have to setup individual connections for each PC. James Goodman

Share away. I have 3 sharing using ishare, but it should work with built in. Ed Fair

Any advice I give is my best judgement based on my interpretation of the facts you supply.

Help increase my knowledge by providing some feedback, good or bad, on any advice I have given.

 
personally i use the linksys 4 port switched router to shre my net...but link sys is coming out with a router/switch/print server/storage in one sometime soon, so that sounded really kewl, but yea ADSL shares nice with a router...just when u config with the webmin for the router be sure to tell it u are using PPPoE and fill in the username/password boxes, and the "keep alive" is nice. ;) "Less work more network" (HP) -- its so catchy
 
beware some dsl companys will fine you if you don't pay for that service (but they have to catch you 1st)but it does share easily. So long and thanks for all the fish.
