Hi
it is easy you need to get you a hub and connect the cable that comes from out side to it and then connect the 2 PC's to the hub this will connect the 2 computers to internet.
thank you

Old posts, there was no need to reply. But here is a point.

Hubs can be costly to share files between two computers.

If you can go buy yourself another Lan card (or have two ports already) , which is around 500 bucks in India, then you are good to go.

So you would need 1) Extra Lan card or Ethernet port (I have one on my motherboard, and a PCI lan Card, so two)

If you connect to the internet using USB... u need only one lan card, not two...

And 2) a Crossover cable... costs from 50 bucks... i got myself 3 metres for a 100.

Once you get these... just connect the two pcs, and run Windows ICS... it should be done...


Or you can get two wireless (Wifi) Adapters for cheap, and connect using Windows Adhoc ICS.... which runs without a hub too.

Lol, i love life without hubs.
