Is internet sharing possible with this setup?
I'm not sure how to ask this question and I hope you all can understand what i'm trying to say.
My office is located downstairs while my DSL/router is hooked up upstairs and I enabled connectivity wireless so I can use my laptop anywhere in the house. I recently added a desktop in my office but no wireless NIC card built in and this is where my question is. At this point I think I have two options maybe three.
1. is to buy a wireless nic card and install it or
2. run a cat 5 cable from upstairs all the way down to my office.
3. ?Internet sharing ?
I was wondering since my laptop is right next to my desktop and I noticed that my laptop have a lan port to connect with cat 5 cable. Can I just connect that to my desktop and enable internet sharing? That way my laptop can use wireless and my desktop can use internet if and only the cat 5 is plug in? What is the easiest way to tackle this?
Thanks,
