which type of connection ?? adsl or ethernet ?? means through phone line or direct cable line ??

If your router supports both USB as well as Ethernet interfaces, you can use them for each of your devices. I personally haven't tried it out, but my school library has two computers sharing a single connection in that way.

1. Proceed as in post I gave before
2. Since ur sharing via LAn, open network connections and double click the Ethernet/Lan connection=>Properties,
3. In tcp/IP section, fill 192.168.0.1 in static IP (of laptop)
4. Similarly in ur, fill 192.168.0.2 in static IP(of Desktop)
5. U can fill the DNS entries by finding ur present DNS entries or u can get much efficient and less crowded public DNS servers. Google "public dns servers" for that!

Ur done!

i have not tried yet ,it may possible .just attached a usb cable on both system .first keep adress un changed means let it gain automatic ip adress .
if it does not work then give ip adress fallowing "mediator" thread process.

@manshia : I hope i dont have to repeat. Ur case is same as that of @ravi. U wanna connect laptop to laptop. U can do that via ethernet (as in case of @ravi) or connect wirelessly. In either case u just need to configure the interface in the same way as I explained!

Connect the lappy to Internet as u connect via USB. Then connect Lappy with desktop via ethernet. Then follow as said! Read carefully and follow!
