hi,
i have a wireless laptop and a desktop pc that i'm trying to connect to gether. i have successfully tried wired and wireless network (peer-to-peer/ad-hoc). the problem with the wireless adapter on both pc's is that it has to be set up everytime you turn on the machines. file & printer sharing and internet connection sharing worked on both cases.
i am now trying to connect a router to the desktop using an ehternet cable to the wan port. (this will look like any dsl/cable modem feed to the router). and let the laptop catch the wireless network that the router brodcasts.
can this be done?
