O.P. Sharing an Internet Connection Between TWO Pc's
Ok, I just recently bought my friends pc from him and now I want to get it and my own pc online at the same time.. I'm on a wireless network, but his pc doesn't have a wireless card.. he always hardwired it. So I was wondering since my PC(Main computer) is connected to the wireless network in my house via a wireless card.. Would I be able to connect my PC and the secondary pc with a Ethernet cord. I was told you can do it with a cross over cord.
But A) I don't have one(Or I might just don't know how to tell if my Ethernet cord is a cross over one or not). B)Wan't to know if it's possible with a normal Cat5 Ethernet cord or a Normal Phone jack cord?
The main pc is running Windows XP Professional SP2 and the secondary is running Windows XP Home SP2
