Get a broadband router. You can get this at most stores that carry computer equipment. If you just want to connect both using CAT5 cables, get a standard wired router. If you would like to add wireless capabilities at some point, go ahead and invest in a wireless router.
I haven't worked with too many routers, but I have worked with a wired Linksys router that never gave me any trouble and a D-Link wireless router that makes me want to break things, mainly the router itself.

Change all your settings to Automatic. The router will handle giving the different computers IP addresses.
