How to set up a direct connection between MacBook Pro and PC?
Router is fine, just disable or secure the wireless and set it up right. If your school does mac registration, then your router must have the ability to clone your desktops mac address. Your ISP shouldn’t be able to tell the difference. (Incidentally, if that works, then you can also use mac address cloning to get an Xbox online for fun times. This is handy if you know anybody who brought one, but doesn’t want to buy a router.) Another NIC + ICS is also fine, but for that your desktop must always be on for the laptop to have connection. Also you need a wire, which sucks. Since both work, it’s up to you to decide what you think will best suit your needs. The router is more expensive, I guess, but not much more. Generally, I’d say get the router, if only because it’s more useful than another nic in the long term.
