How to have my other PC connected to my broadband connection?

What you need is a router. A router is a box that will split the internet connection from your internet modem to different wires, which are then hooked up to your computers. A lot of routers brands (Linksys, D-Link, Netgear for example) are very user friendly. You need to do is when you buy a router, make sure you purchase a few CAT-5 cables (or ethernet cables). You need one cable to go from the modem to your router and you will need two cables, one for each computer and each of them hooking up directly to the router. After that, there should be a CD that comes with the router, just put it in your computer and it should load up a wizard. It will help you setup your router and you should be good to go. If there are any questions, the instruction manual with the router should answer all questions. Most newer computers should already come with the appropriate cards and such to allow an ethernet cable to be connected into it. Not so hard that you would need to call up a technician, in fact it is very easy to install even for anyone that doesn't know much about computers.

If your router is a wifi router and your computer in another room, the best is to check if you have a free PCI slot in your PC and to buy a wifi card. Using a wifi connection, you will avoid to have to link with cable your second PC to your router.

The solution that I am using in my house is by using a wireless router. The basic idea is PC/laptops router modem There is a need to buy a USB wifi adaptor. I am using this way because the other PC is located in another room. To physically connect it to the router would require a long cable. This can lead to other problems like a faulty CAT 5 cable.

Just try visiting a computer shops and they will assist you on your queries. They will likely to offer you router for your pc to be interconnected.

you will definitely need a router, but if one of your computer is using a windows 7 operating system, you can turn that computer to become a wifi router, i will be more descriptive if you have a W7 OS.

You just look in to your router provided my your isp and there must be a few other ports free next to the cable that you have used to connect to your pc. So just go and buy a lan cable and connect the other pc using it.

I agree with all the response above... that's all you need to do.. buy a router switch and configure. Its very easy.. you don't need a computer technician about it. You just need to read the manual.. ok!
