i had a basic information about creating network between two pc . so i baught a cable (network cable)i dont know the name, but i think it is straight cable bcz the colores in both sides of the cable are arranged the same.but in PC 1 in network place i see ethernet network and in PC 2 there is local area network.
i just know both must be the same ,i forgot it must be whether LAN or Ethernet.so i m pleased if u let me know which is needed LAn or ethernet.and how to have the same network in other PC

To make a LAN you need an ethernet cable - there is no such things a 'LAN' cable, that would just be a less correct word for an ethernet cable

To network two PCs, provided they are both fairly recent, all you need to do is connect the two PCs by their ethernet ports, and set up a Homegroup
