Hey u need to make sure that the cable is a crossover.
Just do a search on google on how a crossover cable looks like.
Once you connect both to the network adapters you will see both communicating, then add static ips on both with same gateway and it will work
Let me know if you need more help.

It should be engraved on the wire itself, "CROSSOVER", I believe CAT5e and CAT6 are crossover.

Hello,
Yes it should be engraved on the cable, no not all cat5e cables are crossover.
And what you are showing me is the router, you need the cable.
Take a pic of your cable clips, on both of them i can tell u if its crossover or not.
Thanks

the cat is the significance of the quality, so a cat6 would be able to transfer data at a faster maximum speed than a cat5. I believe a CAT5 is 100mbit quality and CAT6 it 1gbit
Basically its like this. You got 4 wires. The 2 in the middle are the important ones. They are the send and recieve wires. If you use a non-crossover (patch) cable - its sending the data to the sending pin on the other computer. What a cross-over cable does is cross the 2 middle wires over, so the send data goes to the recieve pin instead.
Basically in a nut shell. If your feeling creative, cut the cable in the middle, cross the 2 middle wires over (as seen thru the clear plastic plug) and off you go, or buy a crossover cable

Yea CAT6 is 1gbit quality. I am using it already.
You need to use CROSSCABLE for this purpose and it can be either CAT5 or CAT6

Yes that's the way, you can cut the cable and join wires aswell it will work, but make sure no wire is left out, or wrongly joined to a different color.
Thanks & Regards
