Adding Wired to Wireless

[thoggarth]

I've looked for a while but not found a solution so apologies if someone has previously answered.

I have 2 desktops, both Windows 7. They each connect in their own right wirelessly to my internet router (through a wireless extender but I think that is incidental). I have a Homegroup set up which uses my house wireless network (name withheld)

I want to also connect the 2 computers to each other directly by a LAN cable so that I get a faster connection.

How can I add the LAN connection to my in house wireless network?

Add wired network adapters to each computer, run an ethernet cable between them, and create a second network (subnet).
