internet from on machine to another


hey doods.

ive got a PowerBook running 10.3.4 and using a Wireless Router to connect to the internet. i was wondering if there was a way to get internet from my notebook, to my rh9 box thru an ethernet cable. if i could just use a cable to connect the two machines that'd save me 40 bux from buying a wireless card for my rh9.

Crossover Ethernet cable - You should be able to find it at RadioShack/Staples ... or have a friend make it for you 1,2,3&6 connect to 3,6,1&2 on the other end.
