I want to set up a network on two computers I have, but have no experience with them yet. I was just wondering if anyone out there had some good ideas on what I should buy for a good networking setup, and also looking for a pretty cheap setup. Neither computer has any network cards at the moment. Kind of looking for a estimate on prices too if anyone knows. Thanks in advance.
