How to Connect Two Computers to One Broadband Modem to Use the Internet

Sharing an internet connection between two computers in your home is very easy with all this new technology. If you own a broadband modem or one that is supplied from your internet service provider you can most probably have two computers connected to it without needing a router. This can save you money by not having to buy that extra network equipment. 

Quick tips on how to connect two computers to one modem:

If you look at the back of your modem, it may have a USB (blue) and a ETHERNET (yellow) port. See a detailed picture how to connect two computers to one modem

**My service provider, Telstra Australia, supplied my modem to me. It came with an installation disc, which we will need to use to connect to the modem through the USB.
**If you have a similar modem to what I have described, you can connect two computers off the one broadband modem and thus both accessing the internet.
One can connect through the USB port and the other through the Ethernet.
**A USB cable and and Ethernet cable should come with the modem, however to connect the second computer you may need to buy a longer Ethernet cable as you do not want the two computers sitting right next to each other. Get a blue cable.. NOT red.
**To connect a computer to a broadband modem through USB, it is recommended that you use the installation cd. It will ask you to choose how you want to connect and you select USB. Make sure you know your user name and password for your internet service provider.
**To connect the second computer to the same modem but through the Ethernet, just plug it in...It usually works straight away. If it does not, use the installation cd, but choose to connect with Ethernet instead of USB.

Notes:
1..If you do not have an installation cd, phone your internet service provider and they will send one to you.
2..If you run into any problems, phone your internet service provider and they will help. You are allowed to have more than one computer connected to the internet. You can also get more networking tips at tips4pc.com.

Apple Modem $100.37 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Apple USB Modem is a combined 56 kbit/s data modem and 14.4 kbit/s fax external USB modem introduced by Apple Inc. after the internal 56k modem was dropped on the October 12, 2005 iMac G5 revision. Apple introduced its first true modems in 1984, the Apple Modem 300 1200 modems (V21/V22). Prior to that they offered a third party Applebadged comparatively lowtech acoustic coupler. Those were followed by the industry standard 2400/data and combined 9600/fax (V29) Apple Fax Modem in 1987. Apple introduced the internal 2400 data/fax modem card for its Macintosh Portable in 1989 as well as released its last external desktop Apple Data Modem 2400. Only standard internal modems were offered during the 1990s through 2005, with the notable exception of Apples foray into GeoPort passive telephony modems which relied heavily upon the computers software and processing power rather than dedicated hardware (like Apples proprietary internal Express Modem). The Apple USB Modem is Apples first true external modem since the Apple Data Modem 2400 was discontinued in 1992. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.
