Hey guys. I am new to networking and would like to know some things. I have a cable modem and need to set up a network between 2 computers that are in different rooms on the same floor. I care about security and speed. I have 2 desktops to network together.
I dont know what I actually need to set up a network. I heard all you need are 2 adapter cards and a router. If that is true, what types should I get? Can anyone recommend types or a site that guides me? Also, do computers come with the networking adapter card so I can check if i have one?
I dont even know whether I should get a wired or wireless. Any tips on that?
Thanks!<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by hotctyplaya24 on 12/19/04 08:59 PM.</EM></FONT></P>
