Samantha: How do I connect a new computer to an existing online home computer?
My existing home computer is already hooked up and online thru Cox Comm. I have a external modem. I would like to hook up another computer to my existing computer so both my children have there on computers.

Get a LinkSys Router, E-3000 would be good for now and into the Future. You will have WiFi for your phone when you are ready for that feature too
If the “modem” has more than one Ethernet jack (the part the computer is plugged into), jut plug the other computer into it. (There will probably be 4 of them.) If not, get a router – then you’ll have 4 jacks and wireless. Linksys and D-Link are both top of the line.
