I know of many people (couples, roommates, etc.) who have more than one computer, more than one SL account and more than 1 person playing in the same household. What do I have to do not to get logged off when my husband wants to log on to SL? We'd like to play together, but can't. Here is our setup: we both have PIV computers with XP. We have a business DSL line that goes into a modem, from the modem the cable goes to a router, and from the router 2 cables go to the individual computers.

Whenever one of us is in SL, and the other logs on, the first person immediately gets disconnected. Any ideas on how to solve this problem will be very much appreciated!

OH! I've seen something like this before! Check & see if your DSL modem is connected to the computer using a USB Cable. If it is - thats the problem.
