Hi,

I have a newbie question. Basically my cable modem sits in my living room
(due to cable connection there).  My desktop is in another room not having
the cable connection.  I want my cable modem connected to my desktop in
another room (only one pc so not really a "network").

Essentially I want to be able to do the following:

Internet ------> Cable Modem (Room1) ----> Phoneline (Room1)
Phoneline (Room2) <------ Desktop (Room2)

Will this work? I read some postings in this newsgroup and went to
www.practicallynetworked.com but could not get this kind of configuration
questions answered.  Would really help if someone guided me as to what I
would need for just this kind of a "network extension".

Also, if I do decide to get another desktop and "share" the connection,
would my investment in the above go waste?

Thanks!
