I need to network, peer to peer, 2 computers at opposite ends of my
house. Want to use CAT5 cable with BNC connectors.  Will be about a
40 foot cable run. I have 2 each 25 foot cables and plan to connect
them with a BNC connector.  How far apart can i realistically put
these computers ?  Is 40 feet too far for reliable performance.??
Both are pentium computers, one running Windows 98, the other
Windows 95. Both currently networked and working fine, but only
about 10 feet apart.

thanks as always

David Hurst
