Hi...
I'm getting a second PC and need to connect it up to my first pc. It'll mostlikely connect through my router/modem, which the first PC is connected to.
I'm just not too sure what sort of cable to get as I see that there are various types of cables (crossover, patch, etc.). I see my XBox 360 is connected to my router via a patch cable.
One other really silly question. Would my router/modem act as a network addaptor for the PCs so that they can see eachother across the network (share files, etc between them)? Or would it only be act as a modem for the second PC?
Thanks
