Just put in a network for 2 PCs. I'm sharing files and printer OK. The manual that came with the Linksys NICs, doesn't tell me how to get on the internet through the DSL connection of the main machine.

If anyone can tell how, or send me to a good website, I'd appreciate it.

Yes, yes... went to the designated site and found several proxy servers. Decided to try the Freebie from AnalogX. Works great. Had a little trouble following the instructions, but the price is right, and it works.

All I wanted to do was connect 2 PCs, and use the internet. ... I was working in unknown territory and was starting to think I was slipping down into a black hole. ... I'm okay now.

Thanks a bunch.
