For example: Does the router have other devices connected to it? Does the router have unconnected LAN ports? Does the router have wireless? What's connected to the WAN side of the router? Does the Debian PC have a spare ethernet port? Does the Debian PC have a slot free for a cheap card? What interfaces does the Other PC have, if any? Knowing the answers to questions like these would make it possible to suggest solutions. Otherwise we're left guessing. You might: use a cheap wireless dongle for the Other PC (I did that for an old PC with busted wireless) or: CAT5 connect the 2 PCs with PtP and masquerade a connection (I did that 10 years ago before buying new router with free dongle included) or: Cat5 the Other PC to the router (I've never tried using a router like that) Generally speaking, if there are "wires", then you can do it, even through the Serial or Parallel Ports. Cheers, David.
