To cut a VERY long story short, I'm going to be visiting my parents for a vacation. They have cable internet on their desktop, but there is no modem or router...the ISP has installed a cat5 cable that plus into the NIC in the desktop and that's how they get their internet(don't even ask!! I wish they lived in the US!)
The internet is locked into the desktop so tight that if I plug the cat5 in my laptop, the connection is not accepted at the ISP's end....buying a router is a last option.
Is there any way for me to share my parents's internet connection, say via their USB port? I have a wireless pcmcia card for my laptop.
Thanks for any help
