Hi im new here, so please be gentle.
Here is my problem. I have a cable LAN
connection on (PC 1). Also on this machine I
have a Belkin Wireless card installed.
On another PC(laptop or PC2) I have an intel
wireless card.
I can access the internet with problems on PC
1.
My problem is as follows.
I am trying to get PC2(laptop) to use the
internet connection that (PC1) is already using, via
the wireless card connection.
According to windows xp, both wireless cards tell
me they are connected. although if i check the
status or try to browse, (using PC2), i get
'limited connectivity' and 404 errors or IE.
I have a feeling this is all to do with IP
addresses, but i really cant seem to get them
communicate with the LAN connection(internet)
