Connected 2 pcs with ethernet cable Why cant they detect each other
I am trying to make a direct hardwire connection between my laptop and my desktop via cat5 ethernet cable but they cannot configure properly.
My laptop sees an unidentified network icon.
I ran network diagnostics and resulted in a
"ethernet doesn't have a valid ip address" message
How can I fix this problem?
FWIW The two pcs are normally connected to a wireless router. I have not disconnected the wireless connection
