Adhoc Vista & XP wirelessly
Have a new laptop with Vista. accessing broadband wired by way of modem
supplied by the ISP. Laptop has built in Wireless. Have another laptop with Xp and built in wireless. The question is. Can I network the 2 laptops wirelessly so that Xp laptop can access internet through Vista laptop? I know I can do this with XP machines, having done it many times with varied senarios. But with Vista it's a maze. If it is possible I'll have to learn my way round but when I try to enable the wireless connection on Vista it seems to stop the Internet connection . Thanks
