Does an ethernet connection work for gaming without being online?
Hi,
I like to play multiplyer games with my kids and been used to using a dial-up connection plus an ethernet cable. Now we've got broadband and I don't know how to do multiplayer anymore. If I use the ethernet cable, I just get the old 'limited or no connectivity' sign. Does an ethernet cable have to be supported by an internet connection to work, and if so can this be done with broadband? Is there any way of two computers communicating directly for gaming without having to go online at all?
