Re: Split Cable

you can easily fit another ethernet card in your main pc and run a cable from that to where ever you want your laptop as long as the main pc is on you can use the laptop any where the cable can stretch

no need for a router or another modem etc

providing your laptop has an ethernet connection and you are running xp on both the pc and laptop just connect up the laptop and then click on run type in cmd (enter) and then type ipconfig/all (enter) and then ipconfig/renew Enter should only take 2 - 3 secs for the fix if it lingers longer then it did not work
