And * *well, there's windows..* ** *Back to the actual problem, i wanted to know if i can use a simple Linux Operating System to share my connection. * ** *I have a good PC with two internet ethernet connection cards and i'd like to share from the Modem. What Linux operating system can i use that will be * ** *1. Easy to install* *2. Easy to administer* *3. Can be good looking :D* *4. Most important, works with Orange modems. * ** *Thanking you for your assistance in this matter.* **
Any help will come in handy.
I was going to suggest Ubuntu but i've had a few thoughts behind asking on-list about what distro would work best with this kind of setup.
