Let's say that currently I have-
1) ISP's all-in-one modem/router
2) Work-PC (I want to keep 100% offline)
3) Play-PC (I want only this PC to have internet access)
______________________________
Both my PC have two Ethernet ports and I want to be able to transfer files between the two PCs.
So one Ethernet cable goes directly from ISPs modem/router to Play-PC = Internet access only on Play-PC
Then I buy a switch like in the link below, use the unused second Ethernet port on each PC to connect to the new switch = file sharing between the two PCs but no internet on Work-PC as the router is independent/separate from the ISP provided modem/router.
My question, am I correct in my thinking and is this the correct device for sharing the files between the two PCs?
