Buy a wireless router and PCI card for your other computer. Costs around $100

Use a router and network cards. Visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Router for more info.  Or you can use a hub which will split the connection as well.

laptop and desktop?..\n\ngoto network connection properties of both computers, enter IP address and subnet mask on both computers to the same subnet and use a 'cross over' cable to connect both. And yes, better if they are in the same workgroup!

If you want to connect 2 computers, you'll need a router.\n\nIf it's a single computer, call Yahoo/SBC support for help.

If they both have Ethernet RJ-45 jacks (network cards installed) then all you have to do is get a pier-to-pier cable and plug them both in.  No other hardware is required. \n\nThis cable is special in that the transmit and receive wires are switched on one end, so what one computer transmits, the other one receives, and vice versa. \n\nPlug them in and run the network setup wizard - you'll be in business.

you can always use a router or you can buy a lan adapter. it's like a lan hub

the cheapest way is to connect two computers directly together using a cable.  To do this you will needa Network Interface card (NIC) in both computers (most new computer come with them as standard but if not they are cheap).\n\nbuy a CAT5e (crossover) patch cable and plug each end into the computers NIC cards. If your using XP you can run the "set up a home or small office network". This wizard will do all the work for you.\n\nenable internet connection sharing on the computer that conects to the internet and bobs your mothers brother :-)

Install a router, to allow them both net access.\nThen install all the programmes and files that you need to keep, on the new machine...   and take anything that you don't want messed with off the old one\nBrowser favourites and bookmarks can be exported/imported from old to new.\nBy far the easiest way to move stuff around is after they are bother connected to the router, because you can make them visible to each other ("shareable").  Failing that, invest in a small "flash drive" - a portable memory device that fits in the USB port on each machine

Yes it is possible.  If you are using a windows network, the   configuration is almost identical to that of having 2 wired computers. \n\n1. Configure all computers on the network to have the same workgroup\n\n2. Enable file and printer sharing on both systems\n\nThe configuration all depends on which operating system you are running.

To simply connect two machines directly, if they are within range of one another, you can set up an "ad hoc" connection, using wiFi cards (Which may already be installed, if the laptops are fairly recent)\nMore usefully, install a wireless router and let them share the net connection too.\n\nDetails will vary with operating system age, etc., so you will need to check the handbooks...

If you mean you want to network your two computers together using a USB cable, you can just use the networking wizard at Start --> Control Panel --> Network Connections. \n\nIf they're hooked together, they should see each other via your A-to-A cable.

If you have firewire, use that - it's fast.  I think if you use an ethernet cable, that should work also.  You just have to use the Windows Networking Wizard thing and it should be fine.

To connect them select "Direct Cable" when setting up the network. On your dual boot you will have to set it up twice. One in each instance oof windows. ME and W2k.\nIf you decide to setup broadband through one computer and allow the second computer to access the internet thru the first, use two different brand of NIC in the first computer. This will reduce conflicts when setting up your first computer.

You mean using internet? Or just pc to cp?\n\nIf just pc to cp, you need to have a bluetooth device for both gadgets so that you can share files with each gadget. Most cp's have built in bluetooth but for pc's you have to buy...a lot are availbale in the martket

I think you have a USB type cable modem.  This plugs into a USB port on your pc.  This one piece of hardware will allow you to connect two or more computers together and share an internet connection.

It's easy mate... open your WiFi settings... go to advanced ...there you would find a  option of ad-hoc networks(computer to computer) .. you need it to enable on both the PC's ...after doing it..you would fins the PCin the network list.......just connect and enjoy...

You can use the network connection wizard in the control panel.  You can link them together with a USB to USB.  You didn't mention if you were using, dial up or broadband.  Anyway this link may aid you:\n\nGood Luck
