2. good thing your using windows xp because i forgaot all about win98 ok heres what you will do, if the networking is not a problem (i mean file sharing and stuff) its easy to share the internet. click on stat> control panel> netwrk connections> then right click on your dsl connection> click roperties> and on the advance tab> check allow other users to connect to this computers internet connection. that should do the trick.
3. If you want to surf at a single computer at a time, unplug the USB of XP and plug it to Win98 system.... If you want to surf both at a time get a proxy software downloaded in the XP and connect the 98 pc to XP with the help of LAN

5. Its really easy. First you have to share the broadband connection, to do that you have to go to the properties of My Networking Places, then go to the properties of the dial up which connects broadband, go to the Advance tab and click on share. After sharing your LAN card address will autometically assign to 192.168.0.1, when ask for that click on yes. Now go to the second PC. Then properties of My networking places then propoerties of Local area connection double click on "Internet Protocol(TCP/IP)" asgine IP Address=192.168.0.2 Subnet Mask= 255.255.255.0 Gateway=192.168.0.1 DNS= 192.168.0.1 And you are done.
6. I'm amazed on all the questions posted here. Here's my 2 cents in this matter: Broadband is usually a term for Cable Internet, if that's what you have, then the easiest solution will be to get a router (Netgear are better than any other brand and I've tested them for over 9 years), now days any router includes wireless, firewall and switch services. Connect the router's INTERNET/WAN port to the Cable Internet Modem's ETHERNET/LAN's port with an Ethernet (LAN) cable and connect both computers to the LAN ports of the router. By default, your Internet should be available on both computers without any modification/configuration on the router or the computers.
