There are two ways to connect your pc and laptop together. You can connect them either wired or wireless. If you have a wireless router that your laptop hooks up to in your home your computers are already hooked up and just need to setup shared access. If you don't have wireless then you can use a crossover Ethernet cable to wire the two computers together.
