If there is a FAQ for this question, I would appreciate someone pointing me
to it.

I have AT&T@home and want to add another computer. The second machine has a
NIC card installed. Is this a simple matter of:

a.  purchasing an ethernet hub
b.  connect the input of the hub to the output of the modem
c.  connect the current system to the hub (it should function normally at
that time)
d.  connect the "new" computer via to the hub
e.  install the new IP (where?) just like it is installed in this machine
except, of course, it's different

Then it should work?

Thanks....


Ken
