Assuming you have a cable or dsl modem, buy one of the economical NAT/routers from
Best Buy or such and connect both computers to the switch ports of the router and set
their default gateway to be the lan side IP address of the router. These device come
with great instructions on how to connect to each other and share the internet also.
You can even buy a wireless router [they are dirt cheap] and use it for your wired
computers and have wireless capability ready. Just be sure to disable the wireless
ability of it or someone may be able to connect to your network with a wireless
adapter. --- Steve
