I’m using a dialup broadband connection which requires a username/password to get connected to the internet. My ISP gave me a modem which has 4 pins(LAN) and a USB port. My 1st PC has no LAN Card and I’m connecting it to the modem through USB port. I’m trying to share my Internet connection with 2nd PC by connecting the modem through LAN(Marvell Yukon 88E8001/8003/8010 PCI Gigabit Ethernet Controller on 2nd PC). But while the 1st PC is connected to the internet, I’m unable to get connected to the internet on 2nd PC. It says, “Usename/Password invalid on the domain”. SO I’M UNABLE TO GET CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET ON BOTH THE PCS AT THE SAME TIME. I DONT TO USE AN EXTERNAL ROUTER OR A HUB Bcoz I did not have this problem in the beginning. I’m facing this problem since I formatted my 1st PC recently. Please guide me if I can make any changes in the network settings or its options. The modem is connected to the 1st PC through USB and to the 2nd PC through LAN using 1 of its 4 LAN ports.
But it worked for me in the beginning very efficiently and perfectly
the connection type is PPPoE and the both PCs are on the same workgroup, friends!!
I’m not bothering abt the communication between the two PCs. Both the PCs are connected to the modem, 1st through USB and 2nd through the LAN. I want my modem to share the internet connection to both the PCs. Thats all. Anyone plz kindly guide me in detail.
