Can anyone tell me where I can buy a book about home networking

What kind of network are U trying to setup?

ivnj

I'm thinking about a four client network. 3 pcs, 1 Playstation 2. All w/ internet connection sharing

I'm not familiar with PS2! Is it an ethernet connection RJ45 with an AUTO assigned IP!

Playstation 2 is a gaming system like XBox. There is an accessorie that you can buy that gives it am ethernet and phone jack hook-up so you can play games over the internet. I has software to set ip up on a network.

I know what PS2 is I just don't have one or haven't used it much! So I forgot about the extra device available for the internet!

Anyway who is your ISP? And is it Highspeed or Dailup?

I currently have highspeed dsl through DirecTv. (AKA: DirectWay) Although the end of the month we're switching over to radio broadband through our satellite provider. I don't know who the provider's name is.

Come on someone... I need to know a great book on home networking... soon...

Somebody please answer this question w/o a run around

Please find the provider's name and web address!

Cant help nuch without that info!

But if U must try
