I have just bought a 2nd computer and wanted them to share an internet connection via router. I have plugged everything in and set it up. The WAN and LAN1 and LAN2 lights are on, but the internet only works on the 1st computer (LAN1)

Anyone know how LAN2 could work aswell?
Thanks/

Should work automatically but if not check you are not dialling a connection for internet access and if it's windows XP run the set up a small or home network wizard in the Network connections folder.
Also you may want to check that the NIC or ethernet port is working on the new PC. Is it built into the motherboard or is it a standalone card you are plugging into?
What router is it by the way?
