Is there a splitter available (like a two into one phone adaptor) for broadband so I can use it on both my PC's at home ??

..obviously you need to put the NICs (network interface cards) into the machines and plug them in :)

Yeah. You have two choices, I'll briefly describe the most sane.

You will need:

1 x ADSL/cable modem (ok if your BB provider have supplied you with a router)
2 x 10/100 full duplex NICs (£10 each)
some crossover rj45 netwerk cable.

SR sell all this.

Quickly: Set up broadband on one of your computers, preferably one running XP/2K (or ideally Linux..), the enable Microsoft's Internet Connection Sharing or some other form of NAT.

Easy!
