asked on

1 Line, 2 Connections?

I wasn't sure where to ask this question.  I was wondering if it would be possible to get online on 2 different computers but on the same line. If possible, is there software?

Thanks

yes it is possible in two ways.

1- purchase an IP MULTIPLEXER.
it is a device which can be connected to a single phone line on one end and to network on other. it has a driver software to configure it using your ISP settings.

2- use a proxy server. there are lots of shareware proxies around.(e.g wingate 3.0)
this software runs on your server computer(which is physically connected to ISP) and serves to other client.

on both cases your two computers must be connected via ethernet cards making up a LAN.
