Re: how to connect laptop and desktop?

Basically you need either a router or a cross over cable.

Re: how to connect laptop and desktop?

No. A cross over cable is different. It basically reverses the order of the wires hence the "cross over".

What is an Ethernet Crossover Cable?

Re: how to connect laptop and desktop?

No problem. Let us know if we can help further.

You should be able to find such a cable in any Office Supply or Computer place; Radio Shack etc.

You might also consider a Router if you desire a more versatile network.
