I have a Windows XP PC with broadband connection and two laptops (XP) all beside each other communicating via ad hoc wireless network. Both laptops can communicate and both connections show Signal Strength as Excellent but one laptop is very slow when connecting to the internet (using ICS with the PC as the host) and also sharing printer connected to the PC the same laptop is incredibly slow at printing. The other laptop has no problems. Please help!

I would suggest getting a wireless router. Instead of using ics. Just make sure you get a router that is compatible with your wireless cards. If you get the router you must configure the settings to infrastructure instead of adhoc.
