Cable Stuff

[ForbiddenDNA]

Ok, i'm getting a new Computer, because my older brother is complains too much. Let's say, everday?

Anywayz, Comcast cable is connected to his computer. My room is next to him, so is there any cords? or ways i can share the connection?

If there's a cord to buy, where do I buy it? CompUSA? Best Buy? or what?

That was my problem when I got Cable, so I put a wireless network in. It does cost some money, buy easier to buy wireless then wired. I am not sure if there is a "Splitter" cord, Maybe someone else might know.

Try a hub for about $30 or a router for twice that. Add a cat5 cable, $10 and up, and you have it!

Damn, that's hella money!

Something more simple???

I might just have to go to CompUSA to ask for their reccomendations..

Oh, FFS

Go look for a used hub and cable then. Take a bit of initiative.

We've given you the answers. What you do with them is up to you but at least be reasonable and give some credit to those who try to help.

I find that Comp USA statement very insulting. Or very revealing, one of the 2.

funny thing is, though I'd never seen that acronym before, I knew precisely what it meant.

It's only 40???TIGHT!!!...
Sorry, i didnt really pay attention. I thought its 30, then twice it, then 10 which all equal to 70. Well 70 ant a lot either. But thanks.

I've been asking other forums for reccomendations too..

I'll think it over.
