Why are you doing this?

If both computers are on the same network, there should be no difficulty in communications.

Otherwise, if you want to use Ethernet, you'll probably need a special "cross-over" cable. Not all adapters auto-switch on the signal wires, so you're best off doing things the "right" way.

With USB, I have no clue how you'd go about it, though.

Once the physical connection is made, and you can see the link light on the adapters, you can configure the Ehternet ports on one or both computers. Are you familiar with this process?
