Hi,
I have 2 computers 1 with built in ethernet connected to a router and another computer which doesn't have built in ethernet but has a 56K modem. Is it possible to connect the computer without ethernet to the router using the 56K modem and share files between the 2 computers?
If its possible will the transfer speed be limited by the 56K modem and so i'll be better off buying a NIC for the other computer? If so which brand of NIC should I buy from these 3 choices realtek, SMC or netcomm? The computer that needs the card is old so basically I don't want to buy a NIC that uses the cpu.
