ok, you can do it this way. modem to computer, then computer to computer. you will need a crossover cable to connect computer to computer. set up internet shareing on the computer that will be connected to the modem. then set it up on the other computer. you will then be able to connect to internet thru the other computer.(must be switched on for it to work)

the only other feasible way would be to get a router, a lot less hassle.
