NTL Broadband On The AmigaOne From A PC

[dezignersrepublic]

@amigaone,

step by step guide as requested...

I'm assuming you have a usb cable modem and have ethernet connections on your amiga and pc

1. Use the usb connection to connect your modem to your pc (this is probably already the case)

2. Go to www.analogx.com and download the proxy software under the network subheading

3. Install the proxy on the pc

4. On your pc:

control panel -> settings -> network

click the entry that says:

Network_card -> tcp ip
and then properties

select assign an ip address manually and enter:

ip address 192.168.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0

5.  On the amiga set your network settings as follows:

ip address 192.168.0.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1

6.  Now start the proxy you downloaded and view the readme file , it will tell you all the port numbers the proxy uses.

7. Back to the amiga, modify ur browser proxy settings so they point to:

192.168.0.1 with the respective ports from the readme file (for the proxy)

Any questions, just ask....

Oh yeah should have mentioned that you WILL need to use a crossover cable between the two machines.  Thanks to herewegoagain for that reminder....

Does the stb have an ethernet port (a spare one??)

If so use that to connect to your amiga

The config should still be the same though or at least very similar
