A NIC is plugged into one computer or the other, not both. Please clarify what you're trying to do. -- To reply to this message, replace everything to the left of "@" with james.knott.

I saw one (router) advertised for $49.99 last night at circuit city. You can do a 2 NIC setup in one PC and use internet connection sharing, but it's not as effective as a router and more of a hassle to set up.
