To do this, make sure both computers are connected to the router.
Once they are, do this...
1. Open up network connections (or manage network connections if you have Vista)
2. right click local area connection (or whatever connection your using to connect
to the router) and click properties.
3.If you have XP then double click on TCP/IP... If you have Vista, then click
on internet Protocol Version 4
4.click use the following ip address.
5. on the first pc, in the ip address bar type: 192.168.0.1 : and type
255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask. keep default gateway blank and click ok
6. on the second pc, in the ip address bar type: 192.168.0.2 : and type
255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask. once again keep default gateway blank
and click ok.
7. You now have a LAN setup to play games. if you connect to the internet using
a modem, then when you want to use the internet, you have to click obtain
an ip address automatically when your computer is hooked up to your modem.
8. open a game and create a lan game and see if the other computer can join. if not,
then you have to create a game on the other computer. i dont exactly know why,
but it's kind of frustrating.
Hope This Helped :D

How does a router do?

Is there any wireless router through which LAN in surrounding area can be viewed without connecting any cable?
If such router is connected to that lan either thought wireless or wire, than the answer is yes. Any router can do that. If the router is connected to the lan, no router can do that.
Can two PS3s together to create a LAN?
As the PlayStation 3 cannot generate a DHCP server, they cannot be connected directly together. However, both can be connected to a router and work as part of a LAN that way. Some games for the PlayStation 3 support LAN play.

What is a cascaded router and why would would it be used for?
A cascaded router because is a router connected to another router. As far as I know, there's two ways you can connect two routers together. One is from a LAN port to the WAN port of the other router and the other is LAN port to LAN port. LAN to WAN is useful for things such as network segmenting, say that you want the LAN of the first router not to be able to see the LAN of the second router. That can work. Whereas with the second way, the second router pretty much becomes a switch and you can have access to devices on both networks without the need for port forwarding. Consider it acting as a swithc with a IP address pretty much. However in this method you have to make sure the LAN IP of the second router is within the same subnet as the first in order for this to work. So let me give you a example of how it can be setup: LAN to WAN: Router A WAN IP: Issued from ISP (Usually through DHCP) LAN IP: 192.168.1.1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Router B WAN IP: Issued from the DHCP server of the first router or can be statically set to be a address within the first routers LAN LAN IP: 192.168.2.1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Note: With this method, computers on Router B can connect to devices on Router (including the router itself) but not vice versa. Also...you cannot access computers via NetBIOS names (computer names) in this setup. You have to access them by their client LAN IP LAN to LAN Router A WAN IP : Issued from ISP (Usually through DHCP) LAN IP: 192.168.1.1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Router B WAN IP: Not used since nothing is connected to the WAN port LAN IP: 192.168.1.254 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Hope this helps you out. :)
