Hello sir, you just have Comps, gather all LAN devices, so first buy LAN wire, a switch and RJ 45 connectors. If you don’t have LAN port on your Computer then buy LAN card with RJ45 slots. Use a crimpling tool fix the RJ 45 to LAN cable. Cut the LAN wire as per the requirement. While fixing RJ 45 to wires keep color combination in mind. Crimp it properly. Once you had done crimping. Put one side the wire to your LAN card and other end to the switch.

I am going to tell you how to share internet once you have connected all Comp in LAN. Click on network place on desktop, and then right click on active Internet connection having your Internet service provider name. Click on property option then click on advanced option then tick on option with allows other network. Here you are finished internet sharing on the LAN. Now you try to use net on other Comp. Hope this will help you.

Hey friend instead of switch you can use router that will be better. It will avoid of using one extra LAN wires in Computer that is called server. Enter the IP address in “ advance option” of internet property 192.168.0.1 . gateway address in all the Computer should be same except server.Now you will be able to open the browser in paricu of the Computer. Repeate with same with other Systems. IP address should not be the same. Last bit should be different. On more thing until your server is not turned on you can use internet on other PC.
