HAVE TWO SYSTEMS W/ XP INSTALLED. BOTH SYSTEMS HAVE THE H/S ETHERNET CARDS, INSTALLED CABLES AND 1 ROUTER / MODEM. INSTALLED IS A D-LINK FAST ETHERNET SWITCH, ALLOWING BOTH COMPUTERS TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE INTERNET GATEWAY IS PRESENT. ONLY THE ORIGINAL "ONLINE" COMPUTER IS THE ONE THAT COMPLETES THE CONNECTION.

I HAVE RUN THE HOME NETWORK SETUP UTILITY TO NO AVAIL, IS THERE SOMETHING I AM MISSING ?
 
Yes. Small letters. It's hard to read capital letters and is considered to
be vulgar.




Perhaps you need a crossover cable between the two PCs?

Cross-over aka null network cable is used to connect 2 PC's directly, the OP
is using a "router", which negates the use of a Cross-over cable between the
PC's.
