Got this marconi modem.
In bridge mode.

How do I connect a second computer to internet.

Main computer is online.
2nd computer is ip auto.
connect cable. lan port 2.
in cmd, type ipconfig. see modem.
cannot open website.

Do I need to do something else.
 
you "dial up" on the main computer? You would need to do the same thing on the 2nd PC, or setup internet connection sharing or put the router in pppoe mode and put the username and password on the router itself.
 
If the router is in full bridge mode you need to create a second PPPoE connection on that computer using a username and password. Note that each PPPoE connection is its own unique connection to your ISP. So if your ISP only allows one concurrent connection then making a second PPPoE connection is not going to work.
