Hi,

Here is the scenario, At my House i have 2 computer 1 my work computer & the other is my Gaming computer.

Work-PC & GAME-PC

I have 2 MTNL line's 1 provides 1MBPS Unlimited connection the other is 2MBPS Night Unlimited connection

I have a wireless router on Work-PC with 4 ports for LAN, I have a normal wired router for Game-PC with only 1 port LAN.

What i need is to be able to copy the data that i download at night from GAME-PC to My Work-PC over the network without having to change cables everyday. :@
 
u can connect the work pc & gaming Pc to the wireless network (assuming u have a wifi card or usb wifi ) then exchange data b/w them, but the transfer speed will be low unless u upgrade to 802.11n router

OR

u can connect both PC's to LAN with ur Wifi router and disable the wireless network then the transfer speed will be better.
;)
 
^ thanks.

No i don't have wifi adapters for either of the pc. the Wifi Router is only for my Nokia 5800XM

I am looking for a solution that can connect all of these 4 devices (2routers + 2 Computer) together and still be able to browse internet.
 
This is a simpler option you could try.

1) IP of Router 1 = 192.168.1.1 & IP of Router 2 = 192.168.1.2

2) The two PCs which are connected to Router 1 should have static IPs of 192.168.1.10 & 192.168.1.20 with 192.168.1.1 as their default gateway.

3) The two PCs which are connected to Router 2 should have static IPs of 192.168.1.30 & 192.168.1.40 with 192.168.1.2 as their default gateway.

4) Connect a cable from a LAN port of Router 1 to a LAN port of Router 2.

This way, all four PCs can share data amongst each other, but will only go online via their respective routers. And no need to swap cables all the time!
