Good! encouraging info. Now please tell me what's a "cross over cable"
and where can I find one?and
A crossover cable enables 2 computers to "talk" to one another- you
should be able to find one at any Staples/Office Depot, Futureshop , or
RadioShack. Some of the newer Macs apparently don't require a
crossover, but use a regular "straight through" cable. Our older ones
will only work that way with a router, which is an option for you.
Not sure what connection you have on the 7100, but ethernet works
well... you set up for "Sharing"
