When two computers connected with Crossover Cable they can not share their resources?
The purpose of a crossover cable is to supply the output of one computer as the input to another. As such the most certainly can share their resources. This is done to:
- connecting two devices directly, output of one to input of the other without an intervening network connection
- letting two terminal (DTE) devices communicate without an interconnecting hub knot
- linking two or more hubs, switches, or routers together, possibly to work as one wider device.

What application uses a crossover cable?
Usually older Ethernet switches needed to be connected using a crossover cable. Now, most modern switches have auto-crossover feature that lets you use a straight Ethernet cable. You could also connect two computers using a crossover cable, but like with switches, most Ethernet interfaces on computers also support auto-crossover.

Is a crossover cable needed to connect Host computers to the switch? Why or why not?
What is peer to peer lan?
@ computers to computer connected together via a crossover cable. No hub, switch, domain or central server.
What cable connect between two switches?
Two equipments of the same type - two computers, two routers, two switches - should be connected with a crossover cable.
How many computer can connect crossover cable?
Only two computers, can be connected to a crossover cable, although three can be supported as well, if one has two or more Network Cards (NIC Cards) installed in one workstation. this kind of Network is Known as Peer-to-Peer.
Is there a way to operate 2 computers with 1 modem without a router?
yes if the computers are connected via a (RJ45) network cable then they can share resources such as internet
How can two switches be connected?
Traditionally, two switches can be connected together with a crossover cable. A crossover cable should be used whenever two of the same network devices need to be connected together. e.g. Connecting a router to another router, a switch to another switch or a PC to another PC. Using a crossover cable is not always necessary however. Most new network devices include a feature named Auto-MDIX (Medium Dependant Interface Crossover). Auto-MDIX detects what type of cable is connected and automatically changes its own configuration to enable data transmission to the other device. i.e. It does not matter if you use a straight through cable or crossover cable on Auto-MDIX enabled devices. Both will work.
The bus cable to which computers on the Ethernet is connected?
The bus cable to which computers on the Ethernet is connected is called the trunk. If the trunk breaks, a bus topology is completely disrupted.
How do you connect direct cable through network card for two computers without Internet to play games on a LAN etc if they are running Windows xp?
1) You purchase the cable 2) You plug it into the network adapter (network card). If the cable directly connects two computers, you need a crossover cable; if the computers are connected via a switch (this lets you connect more than two computers), you need a straight cable. Make sure to measure how much cable you need, and to purchase some extra length, to let you move the computers around freely.
Where can you get a 2-port Ethernet switch -- for less than 20 bucks?
What do you mean by "2-port ethernet switch"?You know you can hook two computers directly to each other with a crossover cable. Furthermore, if one of the computers has automatic crossover correction, you can just use a normal cable.
How are nodes computers and peripherals on a network connected?
It is connected by a network cable, switch and a router.

CROSSOVER Im in CET too ;)
