Networking vs just sharing internet connection?

It seems very complicated to network pc's together. Can you just share an internet connection without actually networking the 2 pc's? And, if so, is it just a matter of a cable? I just want these 2 pc's to share an internet connection.

Networking vs just sharing internet connection?
If you only have a DSL/cable modem running directly to your PC, get a router. They are inexpensive (around $50) and allow multiple computers to share your Internet connection. Just plug the cable from each computer into the ports on the router. That's all you need!





The software approach like Windows XP's :Internet Connection sharing" isn't as reliable, it's much better to have a simple device which handles that task only.

Reply:No, you can't share an Internet connection without networking the computers together.





However, networking them together is just a matter of connecting them with a cable (it has to be a cross over cable) and configuring their network settings so they can talk to each other.
Reply:yes but to answer we need to know what type of connection ur tying to share
Reply:Actually, there is something called ICS (Internet Connection Sharing). It's really old school, but Windows will do it. Pretty much sounds like what it is: one computer directly plugged into a modem, second computer plugged into the first using the same connection. You'll probably have to research the specifics for this since nobody really does it anymore.
