Yes. That is the designed function.
Connect it for what? You could use 2 patch cables and a switch, a cross-over cable, firewire, you could connect wirelessly over a network, you could connect over a lan on a network. You could tie the two computers together with a rope or use super sticky glue. I'm not sure what you are asking.
If you can connect to other computers on the same network, but you can't connect outside the network, the problem is quite often that the default gateway has not been configured correctly.If you can connect to other computers on the same network, but you can't connect outside the network, the problem is quite often that the default gateway has not been configured correctly.If you can connect to other computers on the same network, but you can't connect outside the network, the problem is quite often that the default gateway has not been configured correctly.If you can connect to other computers on the same network, but you can't connect outside the network, the problem is quite often that the default gateway has not been configured correctly.
Computers connect to the Internet via a network interface card (NIC) or wireless LAN adapter (WiFi adapter). Historically, computers could also connect to the Internet via a built-in modem for use with telephone lines.
for connecting 4 computers you would need a "hub"(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_hub), and a cat5 cable to connect each computer to the "hub". each computer would also need a "network card"(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_card), alot of modern computers come with a network card integrated so you may not need to purchase it separately.
No. One way to connect the additional computers is via a wireless network. But if you must have a wired network of 10 comupters, you could buy a switch or a hub to extend the network. Routers also have a built in switch, but they are more expensive. A switch is better than a hub and costs a little more.
A bridge is a way to connect two networks. For example, if a user has two or more computers connected to a wired network, and one of those wired computers is connected to a wireless network, the computer connected to both the wired and wireless networks could be used as a bridge. With the bridged networks, the wired computers could access the wireless network.
The WAN or the WWW commonly known as the Internet. WAN stands for wide area network which could link several business locations together as a unit. The device's that connect different area networks together is called a "Router". With a router, you can connect to the Internet, or to the companies WAN (wide area network).
Various virus on internet could affect. Malware's could be used to harm the computer.
A MAN is a metropolitan area network, this does not define the number of computers that are connected but the area that the network covers. A network covering a city could be described as a MAN in the same way that a network covering a Campus is sometimes described as a CAN
There must be at least 2 computers to form a network. However, a standalone machine that is connected to the Internet (which is itself a vast network of computers) is considered part of that network and is therefore regarded as a subnet even though there's only one machine in that subnet.
A network ready device is a device that has the potential to connect to a network, natively it isn't connected to a network, nor is it a network, but with the appropriate configuration and possibly with the addition of components could be connected.
If you are just wanting to hook them up together you can simply use a crossover cable to connect them up directly to the Ethernet ports. But if you want to allow them both to access the internet you need to get a router. There are plenty of articles in TechSpot describing them thoroughly. Have a look around.
