Here's the layout....
Main Floor of house in one bedroom, my mom's Dell with a Cable Modem hooked up to it.
Basement, my brother's room with his computer, it will be a PITA to run a network cable though the newly build walls to the laundry room them up through the vent into the bedroom. I had a cable run before and it was a PITA. I can run one again though.
So say if I decided to hook them up with the network cable (whatever it's called, I can't remember the tech name) I would still need a router, correct? Both machines have typical network cards in them.
