I recently purchased a new IBM ThinkPad R40e and would like to connect the laptop to my Desktop at home.
At work I have a HUB which allows me to connect to the LAN but I dont want to invest in a HUB for home. Is there anyway I can make a direct connection between the TWO machines using some CAT5 cable. My hardware guy says it can be done - But I don't know how?
If somebody can give me a simple guide, it would help a lot. Yes, I have a network card installed on my DEsktop.
Appreciate the help! Thanks!
