Help?

sorry if im off topic.

I was trying to home network with windows XP, in order for me to shear Internet connection with other computers in the house. I have cable modem and its using USB port.. which makes my Ethernet adopter free.

I've tired contacting the Ethernet adapter to each computer (two computer) using a cat5 Ethernet cord.. but the local area connection show's unplugged..? there for i can't bridge
the computers?

am i missing something?You will need a cross-over ethernet cable to connect 2 PCs directly. You can use straight Cat5 cables if you have an ethernet hub/switch.
