Re: Double cable box broadband conundrum

However it would be good to be able to use broadband & share files with the main pc upstairs. Is there a way to connect the small PC to my downstairs cable box to access broadband?? They're right next to each other, it would make things so easy...!

The distance between the 2 computers means i cant daisy chain them together without spaghetti-ing cable all over my house, and i have skint myself buying the new computer so i can't afford a wireless solution yet. Can anyone suggest anything??
your question is answered but may I you to the forum and wish you a happy stay
