Hi,

I'm off to a friend's on saturday to set up shared internet. 
Unfortunately the gateway is going to be a windows box, but you can't 
have everything!

Question is, if I put a socket in each room, can I configure the wiring 
between them to act as a crossover? It this likely to be stable, or 
should I tell him to shell out for a cheap hub?

Cheers
Dylan
