Let’s
know how to network computers. The simplest kind of home
network contains just two computers. You can use this kind of network to share
files, a printer or another peripheral device, and even an Internet connection.
To connect two computers for sharing these and other network resources.
The
conventional method to network two computers involves making a dedicated link
by plugging one cable into the two systems. You'll need an Ethernet crossover
cable, a null modem serial cable or parallel peripheral cable, or
special-purpose USB cables.
Ordinary USB 2.0 or newer
cables with Type-A connectors can connect two computers directly to each other.
You may prefer this option over others if your computers lack functional
Ethernet network adapters.
To make dedicated connections
with Ethernet, USB, serial, or parallel cables requires that:
1.
Each computer has a functioning network interface
with an external jack for the cable, and
2.
The network settings on each computer are
appropriately configured.
One phone line or power
cord cannot be used to directly connect two computers to each other
for networking.
