But one thing still beats me! Why do you want to keep your desktop switched on just for surfing from your laptop? You are wasting electricity, aging your desktop components unnecessarily, spoiling your monitor.....got the point? Why not simply get a hub (they are quite cheap nowadays) and get it done with?

IF the connection is from a ADSL router then why do you need a hub ? It has total of 4 ports, out of which 2 are assigned for LAN. Use the spare one for your laptop. Well, atleast Sterlite SAM300 gives you that. Or else, just get a wireless ADSL router from MTNL. That way you won't need a cable to connect to your connection.
