          learned something today.

          I've used a cheap crossover between my laptop and desktop for quite some time now. Takes all of a couple minutes to set up.

            Yeah esp. in the past 2 years, alot of the NIC's don't require crossovers (and routers and such too)...

            Xbox360 doesnt....

              Network Interface Card...you don't need a router at all, just a crossover cable, if anything. How old is your computer? I'd say just give it a shot with a straight ethernet cable. You'll know if it doesn't work.

                  I'm gonna get some crossover cables. I was told not to do the ethernet cables! How does the NIC work, do you still need crossover cables with that?

                    A NIC is the card you use to interface the network...a smart NIC is what you don't need a crossover cable for..

                      Thanks for clearing that up for me! As you can tell I'm kind of a slow learner when it comes to computer stuff!
