I have a WinXP 32bit pc internet connected (wireless), used for all non FSX stuff, and a Win7 64 pc dedicated to FSX (non-internet). Can I install Plan-G on the WinXP pc then use a usb networking cable to connect it to the Win7 FSX pc?

Thanks for any advice,

Don

I think that if both your PCs have an Ethernet port, you could simply use an Ethernet cross cable, configuring both computers on the same network (i.e. 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 for the first one and 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0 for the second).

I have no idea about USB networking (Is there such a thing? It must be awfully slow), but if it uses IPv4 or IPv6 then it should work.
