i had a basic networking question to ask.do i need a switch to connect between two computers? suppose there is A and B and B is a gateway to another subnet.do i need a switch between A and B?i am asking coz i am not getting any lights when i connect the cable out of A's ethernet to B's ethernet.i though you could just give the output of A to B if u wanted to route all packets of A through B.kinda seems weird to me.i tried switching ethernet cards too. plz cc to me as i am not subscribed.
