The problem is I can't connect two devices. Is it worth raising dhcp on raspberry pi, or is it better to do it on a stationary computer?

Question

linux

While it is not possible to connect the rasberry pi to the network directly (no 20m wire, no wifi device), - I need to install several programs on the RPI system, - I'm trying to set up a connection between my laptop and the RPI.
Having broken through ifconfig on both devices, I realized that they are not on the same network.
The thought came to mind - you need to configure dhcp - but where is it necessary? On which device?

I want to install programs for RPI, such as a video player, etc., so I need a network, - I think I can take it through a laptop, - I’m not exactly sure how to do it yet, but I know that this is possible - it seems to be called a bridge

Answer 1

On the one that can be a server and always on.
