What this guy said. Only it's called a hub not a hup lol
Or if your friend had a wireless connection all you have to do is both connect to it....

Or if your friend just has modem with more than one port, you can just use it as a hub(Downside is that you will lose internet connection.).
Well, you can keep internet connection by configuring more than one ip for network adapter. However windows doesn't really support it and you will have to poke some registries to make it work.
Heres how to do it,

(And if you are using *nix, you can just use ifconfig to add more ips. Its quite easy, just one line in terminal.
#ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.0.15 up , and of course replace ip with your own and device too. :P)

haha my bad... I just got out of the Windows 7 discussion trying to pound the idea of Apps and Services into noobs... so I wasn't paying attention like I should have been.

why would it not work? the IP4 or 6 proticols handle things very well and inserting a static IP isn't a problem... if they even have to... most multi-port modems use DHCP anyway so they both should have internet.
