Not sure if that title is accurate, this field is not my strong point. Basically I’m about to move homes. And in my new (temporary) home I wont have access to ethernet, plus my server doesn’t have a network card. I was therefore wondering if it was possible to bridge a connection between my laptop to my server with an ethernet cable. This would obviously be a short term solution, but I’m wondering if it’s possible and if so, how? Or is it better to buy a cheap network card?
My laptop is running NixOS and my server Unraid, if it should be to any help.
If both Ethernet NIC is over 1gbps, you are fine with using normal cable.
