By inter-connecting the computers around your house or office, you can share data and other resources easily. With the help of operating systems, connecting two computers is a very simple task. Here are some ways to guide you on how you can directly connect two computers.

 

  • With an Ethernet cable, a direct connection between two computers is established. Every computer has an Ethernet port through which the cable is fit in and connected to the other computer’s Ethernet port.

 

  • You can connect the two computers with a crossover cable. One of the computers will require having Windows 7 or 8 for the connection to be set. In the menu of your computer, click on the “Start” icon and select “Control Panel”. In the search box that opens, type “network”, and then click on “Network and Sharing Center”. In the network guide that lays out, click on the “unidentified” network icon.

 

  • If you have a wireless card in your computer, you can also connect your computer to another one. This is a wireless connection, and data can easily be shared through it.
