The only thing that would be better would be if I could use the two vacant places on the router as a hub, or somehow communicate thru the router to the other computer. Sort of a combo hub and router. Of course if it could be done thru one net card... WOW</strong><hr></blockquote>

You can!!!, Either install NETBUI or search for the PC's IP on your network. If you are running WIN2K then create new shares to get rid of the $ next to the drive name. There is no reason why you can't share files behind a router.
