Have tried to run this setup once before. If I recall well, with 2 PCs, the machine with the modem (PC1) has two active NICs, one physical (connected to PC2) and a virtual one (modem). Configure the physical NIC on PC1 as a bridge. Assign static IPs to both workstations; remember that in this setup, you have no DHCP server. Then set the IP of PC1 as the gateway of PC2. However, note that this won't give satisfactory performance as a modem is ideally for use with one PC. Regards, Mugo On Thu, Oct 28, 2010 at 1:23 PM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:

I want to share the modem between two computers but I get the error "network address could not be assigned"
More details on the setup please.
