How are you proposing to share the ethernet from the HTPC?

From what my IT buddies tell me, all I have to do is turn on Sharing on the network adapter, just like in the old days when people created a network and used one pc to access the internet. If I turn on sharing, I believe the Denon will then be able to see the internet via my wireless connection on the HTPC. The Denons have their own MAC address,etc. I assume if DHCP is turned on it should work, at least that is what 3 people told me today.

Ah, your HTPC has a wireless card. That makes more sense.

Only time will tell if I can get this to work, but doesn't sound to bad. I just ran through a sharing wizard for my ethernet adapter, and it asked to use the wireless connection for internet access. Once activated, I think I just have to give the Denon a static IP address one octet higher than the LAN adapter. fun fun fun

I'm sad that I have to wait until Friday for it to arrive. I noticed 6Ave has it marked UPS required signature. (Thinking to myself, Hmmmm... I wonder if I sign that SirQuack or Randy P... I can't wait to try it out with my Axioms...) Oh, did I think that "out loud"....

haha.
This networking stuff is driving my nuts. I think my problem is that my D-Link 4port resedential gateway, and my DSL router are conflicting and trying to give out the same IP Addresses. I probably have things setup wrong.

Do you have to use crossover cable instead of a patch cable when connecting two computers? (or a receiver and a computer, or a game console and a computer?) Maybe it isn't required if you are sharing connection to the net but I had to do that when sharing files from my computer to my original xbox console several years ago.
