Are you talking about a dialup connection or a broadband enabled phoneline?

If its dialup, then NO... if its a broadband connection, then possibly.. assuming you have multiple channels enabled on the line....


The normal way of achieving this is to network both computers together so they share a single internet connection... Unless for some reason you wanted multiple IPs

If your on broadband then your current router may be capable of a wired connection already? The wireless router that came with my contract also had four wired connections from the back of it!

If your using a broadband modem change it out for a router then use a couple of patch leads to hardwire both into the router.
