Mike,
You need a cross-over cable to connect the two units. Assuming that you have the cross-over cable, you need to have both units power-on at approximately the same time to sense the ethernet network.
REALLY, the best bet is to buy an inexpensive hub. Asante sells a 5 port hub under $50.00. Believe me, it works better and you don't have all the hassles.
Check out www.asante.com, Lifetime warranty, free technical support. It beats trying to juggle with the cross-over.
