Hi there if somebody could help me i’d me most grateful. i thought this would be very straight forward and work fine.
I have a laptop with an internal wireless card and i’m using a usb mobitel dongle to connect to the internet.
I want to share my wireless connection so other laptops and my mobile phone can connect to it and use the internet.
I have setup it up following msn guide: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/setup/adhoc.mspx
I have a fair idea of how it works and this guide confirmed it for me. The problem is that once i have set it up and i “view available wireless networks” the network is there but it says “not connected”. When i try to connect to it loads for a while but never actually connects to it..
Furthermore the mobile phone sees the wireless connection but it says it is not in range and again cannot connect.
What am i doing wrong?? Please help??
Thank you.
Tom
