Shaz,

There are many ways to share Internet service. Here are a few websites with
useful tutorials, to give you a start:

Hoping that you have an ADSL modem with Ethernet connection, I highly suggest a
NAT router to provide the connectivity for the both of you. Compared to the
monthly charge for ADSL, a NAT router is very affordable.
