G'day all Scenario. I'm going to have to stay on and off for a number of weeks at my partners house whilst doing some on site work nearby.
Her current setup is an old desktop connected via an USB ADSL modem to the internet - it doesn't have a working ethernet card and she doesn't want to put one in as "it's too fragile" - the machine not her I hasten to add. And as we'll both need to be on the internet at the same time, networking is called for. So doing some research I found that there are USB cables about that will let you connect a number of PCs together in a star type network - the only problem is that they all seem to be for windblows only mainly because of the supporting device drivers and apps I guess. Does anyone know of any Linux and windblows compatible software that can successfully drive such an installation, or will I be limited to my own windblows installation? It doesn't matter which machine has the internet connection. Wireless is not an option as this machine's in built card is defunct.
