Howdy and thanks in advance.
Here's what i need: see, my brother moved in down the street and he has DSL, and i do too, and we want to set it up as if we were on ONE network. Now i would run a cable down there but it's .25 miles away, and i know there's an easier way.
Does anyone know how to do this? or know where i can find resources?

in effect, i'm trying to aquire a network relationship that exists like a true LAN
as in //comutername would work, and we could "LAN" games n shit.

Anyway to do this??
thanks again! :bringit: :jelly:

VPN would be your best route. XP has a wizard which makes setting up VPN a snap.
