Yo, I've got 2 comps at home....one running XP(comp A) has a net connection.....the one running Windows 7 beta(comp B) doesn't
How do i setup a LAN between these two systems and share my connection to the net???
Am a total complete layman, so keep it simple please!!!
wat type of net u got...via telephone line or through cable net(LAN)?
got airtel broadband through cable(LAN or WAN)
Use a router.
Make sure the two pc have some similar address
example:
198.100.200.1
198.100.200.2

If you are just connecting 2 computers (and don't need to share resources) you don't need a router. Just a hub which would cost you about Rs. 600 or so I guess.
Otherwise I believe you get a router for as low as Rs.1400 or so.
btw which net r u going to use, i mean isp? some isp like mtnl requires router to connect to them. if so, u can make a lan through that router only and connect two PCs, one through usb and other through the lan socket.
i also have similler problem over here
