well with regards to the ip problem, you can either

1) Change the ip of the second computer to the range that the router is giving you
2) Go into your router settings and put the router ip to the address range you are using ie set it as 192.168.1.253 or someting and switch off dhcp.

If you want to share your connection you can do it 2 ways, dial through using pppoe from each computer or using the router to dial. If you use pppoe both pcs gateways need to be the routers ip, otherwise the pc sharing needs to have gateway as router and the 2nd pc as the 1st pcs ip.

You should just be able to plug the router+pcs all into the same hub.

Hope this helps, if its 2 confusing ill try and go into more detail.

i used to have telkom adsl internet. but now I do not! But I still have the router which has connected two pcs. So my question is how do I enter my router to change the IP address.
