hello,
im not sure which forum this is to go in, so here is the first try. I have an A7V8x motherboard, and it only has 1 onboard ethernet port. In our home we have a wireless network setup, and my computer is currently connected to the internet using a wireless adapter that connects to a USB port on my computer. I was wondering if I could use the other ethernet port and connect it to another computer in my room, thereby also giving that computer internet access through my computer. I tried simply plugging the cable in from my computer to the other comp and it did not work, is there something im missing?
