Where is your Internet connection? A router going directly into the hub, or on one of the PC's?

In case directly, it is just a matter of specifying the IP address of the router as the default gateway for the PC's. In case one PC connects directly, you'd need software (MS Windows ICS or something commercial) to have it act as a gateway for the other PC's...

Either you can by a router which will allow both computers to connect to the internet or if you are using Windows 98se or + (anything after it) you can configure internet connection sharing which will install one computer as a server and the other one as a host. I have that working at a company using dial up and it works just fine.

Hope this helps. If you need more help you can surely email me.
