this is a simple way to share an internet connection between home computers which can be done by layman. requirements : 1. 2 network cables RJ-45(Registered jack - twisted pair cables)(no. of cable depending on the number of computers you want to connect). 2. a hub 3. 2 nic cards (network interface cards), not needed if your motherboard already has one. steps : 1. install the nic cards in your motherboard. 2. plug the cables into nic and the hub. 3. connect the hub to your model/Adsl/Router 3. windows xp will autometically install the drivers for your nic card. 4. thats it. ----------------

yes, you can but there would be less flexibility like if the server is off, other clients cannot connect to the internet. to connect only two computers you can use nic to nic cable.
