I want to connect my XBOX to my broadband connection on my PC (XP-home), I also have a laptop, and a windows ME crappy pc I would like to connect. I do have a OLD 20 port hub available to me, not currently used

Do I have to buy the Router BT suggest ie

OR, can I buy something else (it seems quite expensive to me)

if so can you suggest or offer a link ?

Thanks for your time readers

You do know this forum is for Knoppix which is a Linux operating system so probably not the best place for your question. That being said you want to start searching for internet connection sharing in windows. Then you need two net cards in the box that connects to the internet, connect a cable from the second to the hub and then you plug in the other machines into the hub and share the connection.
