    Post using a comm port on ethernet

    I have an adaptor, dat can change a comm port connection into a LAN connection.

    How can i connect a computer without a LAN connection to a hub, with normal computers.

    What program or how can i allow the other computers to see the Non LAN on the network

    ive never heard of or seen such a thing

    the easiest thing to do would be to buy a network card and install it into the computer

    That adapter is more than likly a roll over cable adapter (used to configure routers) It won't work for ethernet. Get yourself a real nic.
