Re: Network problem..please help
 

did u add the DNS server to the 2nd connection ?

Re: Network problem..please help
 

yes i did isn't it the same as the gateway

Re: Network problem..please help
 

no it's not ,
check the details of the main connection , you might see 2 or DNS servers, one of them is a gateway server,
so chose the other and add it to the 2nd connection

It depends on the switch you have some switches need to be configured, so y dont you buy a hub instead

Re: Network problem..please help
 

it depends on the interent provider, some ISPs fixe the internet on ur netqork card's mac address, so the best solution is to get another network card share the internet connection and then connect the switch/router/hub,
