Guys nothing has worked, but theres one thing i want to try...

can i connect pc A to the internet and then connect pc B to pc A using a router or a hub?

so in other words can i access the internet on the first PC using a hub/router?

NOT connecting the modem to the router and then from the router to the two computers.

I mean computer to another cmputer to the internet.

Sorry for repeating myself but its very important i get this working, and i need all the help i can get.

and yes i have the same OS on both PC's.

Thanks a lot.
