Certainly, get a router and plug both into it. It will share the connection as well as allow you to move files and share a printer.

Look, I'm no geek but I use Network Magic with [3] desktops and [1] soon to be 2 laptops. The max for this service is 5 and I say the more the merrier. I am not promoting this service but I was never successful setting up my network with the Microsoft prompting. My laptop really isn't hard to work with but connecting my [3] printers is tricky. If you have a laptop[say Dell or HP] then you have a wireless card, it will pick up the router you already are using. Check out the wireless programs that are out there.....It should make things easier.......

You need a router, then you can do that. I have 5 computers at home running off of 1 connection.
