45284 2002-04-24 00:43:00 What you need is a network. You will need to purchase a network card for each computer (unless they already have them) and sufficient cable to connect them.

You will need to buy 10/100 Mbps cards and cat5e crossover cable.

You will then need some software to share the internet, this is free, but i will need to know what windows version is on both your computers to tell you what you need.

If they both have modems, and you don't want them on the net simultaneously, simply plug them into different phone jacks or use a double phone jack adapter to plug them both into a single jack. Connecting one into the additional phone jack on the other modem might also work. Guest (0)
