Internal DSL Modem and Networking

[Orange Guy]

Does anyone know if it's possible to set up a home
network using an internal DSL modem? I'm running Windows
XP on two computers that I'd like to connect using a
wireless router. All the instructions I find show setups
with external modems.

Thanks

I think you may only be able to use ICS with an internal modem.
If you're thinking of going wireless and buying a wireless access point for
it then maybe think of buying an external wireless modem/router and dumping
the internal modem. There's not much price difference.
If you don't have the pennies then you can use ICS, dont buy an access point
and set up AdHoc mode with your wireless network cards. Don't think Id
recommend this unless you're confident with networking.

Thanks for the tip! I think I'll try the adhoc setup
first since I have the wirless stuff. If that don't work
I'll hit restore and go get the external modem.
