Summary: Good Choice For ICS
Review: This review is for the HPN200SK Home PhoneLine 10/100 Network-in-the-Box
For me, a wireless/wired router will not work. The computer that needs to share the connection is in a room too far away for reliable wireless, and I do not want to string cat5 cables across my house.
The 10/100 Network-in-the-Box worked just great for me. ICS is not all that bad as some claim it to be. It allows me to share printers, drives etc. between the two computers.
By the way, I got this setup with the following:
Windows XP Home SP2 Dell PC (3.0Ghz, 1024MB RAM)
Windows XP Home SP1 Dell PC (500Mhz, 384MB RAM)
Linksys HPN200SK Kit
I am on Verizon DSL (DHCP) in northeast Texas using a Westell 2100 DSL modem.

Summary: It worked great for a while
Review: Three years ago, you couldn't get a single 100 Mbit/second network card for the price of this neat little network in a box. It comes with two PCI 100 Mbit network cards, a five port hub, software and even the cat-5 cables! At first I was skeptical. But the whole thing worked right out of the box. I installed the cards, plugged everything in and turned everything on. Windows 98 found the hardware and installed the drivers. The instructions were fairly clear and everything was easy to set up. In 20 minutes, I was up and running on my own private 100 Mbit network. I like this product very much. If you've been looking for a way to share data, printers, etc... on all your home (or even small office) PCs, I think you will like it too.
