Copying files from pc to laptop

Hi,

I want to copy files over, but I'm already using my ethernet plug for the internet, and I'm not really willing to patch up my laptop for 2 hours while I copy over files and have no internet. So I'm wondering if maybe I can do it via Firewire?

I also have e-sata and usb on both but no cables to use to patch them up.

Thanks

Well, you can use IEE-1394 (Firewire) as a network connection: http://www.weethet.nl/english/network_firewire.php
