Hi Barry,
Yes.
But before we tell you, you will have to tell us little things like what
operating systems are being used on each computer and what internet
connection you already have (dial-up, broadband).
Rumour has it, although I have never come across it, that some ISPs prevent
internet connection sharing, which is what you are going to be doing. If so,
perhaps someone could tell me which ones do this...

You need a cross-over cable if you are not going to use a hub.

There are several ways of doing this. Pick the one that suits you
best.
I would suggest you get a cable/dsl ROUTER (not a hub) with a built-in
switch, and follow the instructions supplied with this device.
Cheers,

It's even irritating to go through these posts, the ones with the
wiseguy responses. I'm no guru, but here's what I did and it does work:
Get a Linksys Wireless -g 2.4 gb router (about $60) and two wireless
cards. This is the only way I know of that both computers can access the
internet without two addresses. (Most ISPs, in fact most probably
everyone) will try to charge you $10 for a second address. The problem I
had was networking internally both computers because of the flakiness of
wireless, perhaps because the computers are on different floors. I fixed
it by hardwiring nonwireless cards to each other. You don't need
additional hardware. One wire connects to the router, the other to the
computer itself. Hope this helps.

You don't need wireless for this.
Why would you suggest a wireless router and wireless cards if you
ended up going wired anyways?
FWIW, if your wireless if flaky, it's going to be flaky for both
internet access and LAN access. If it's solid for the internet, it
ought to be solid for LAN as well.

was not my experience. I found the wireless to be wonderfully reliable
bringing in the net, but very unreliable skipping upstairs in my home. I
hope you're right, Dan, because then the author of this tread can tie
his computers together with just cables, and it should work. I hope he
let's us know. (I only jumped in here because of people who instead of
using email drag us along as an unwilling audience to their schoolboy
howlers.)

I'll take your word for it. That's very curious. The wireless is
strictly the physical medium over which the network traffic passes.
It doesn't care whether the packets are destined for the internet or
for another computer on the LAN; if the internet is OK on it, it
should be good for LAN traffic too. (Slower than 100 Mb Ethernet, but
good nonetheless.) Anyways, interesting. If you'd care to start a
new thread about it, I'm sure we could get your wireless LAN issues
resolved.... ;-)

Thanks for the offer. I wrestled with the problem for a while and
decided it was likely a problem with one of the cards,although of course
I'm not sure. Meanwhile, the cable worked and calmed down my wife, so
it's not as if I can't find other computer problems to pursue.:-)
