Hi guys,

I recently got a new computer that I am going to use as a server. Well, We have two computer upstairs already. We have the office computer which is right next to the switch and the cable modem. We also have my workstation which is a few rooms down from the office. When my house was getting built, we ran a ethernet cord from the office to my room. A singal cord.

Now, when I wanted to add another computer to my room, I bought a hub (yes, everything supports uplink). However, Only one internet connection works on the hub. Is this because my ISP gives me one IP and my switch can only accpet one connection?

Does anyboy know any ways around this problem? And No, running another ethernet cable from the office is not an option. And neither is making my computer that gateway because the cable modem is in the other room.

Thanks guys,


Ilya
