Just bought a 2nd PC and am looking to network them. They are both XP--1 pro, 1 home.I have comcast w/RCA cable modem connected to a Netgear router.Both PC's are plugged into the router and can access the internet at the same time.I want to be able to share files between them & still be secure. If I use a crossover cable, what do I connect it to? Do I need to change the way the hardware is connected? I tried searching this forum, but my question seems to be much simpler than most problems that more experienced users run into. Thanks in advance!
