Well, using a hub (instead of a DSL/Cable modem router),
you probably do not have DHCP services running, unless
you are running ICS on one of the computers. Without
this, IP setup will be a real pain. I would suggest you
run ICS just for these services, even if you are not
accessing the Internet from all the computers.
Anyway, for additional info, check out the post following
this, as I just talked in some detail about this, and
have also disucssed this in several of the other posts
here. Check them out too.
Thanks, Jack

internet fine, but I cant access real player or Juno. THe
programs say they cant see a connection. The Firewall is
off, and I can't figure it out.
