basically it's high speed 20mb/s commercial connection we are using in flat and the modem is another rome..

OK well I will assume then that you have an ethernet cable to the modem? If so you need to have another ethernet port on your PC and connect that to your brothers using a crossover ethernet cable then follw this: (Iknow its for vista but its essencially the same)
