Yesterday purchased new wireless network card, as old belkin device was intermittent to say the least, just to connect to internet.
This works fine 100 % better.
Then decided to have have a go a sharing printers and files over lan something not tried before, couldnt do it gave up. Think its because the laptop im using is my works one which looks at another domain.
Anyway cant now access internet on main pc, which is connected via ethernet and usb to my
BT1800HG wireless device.
Tried everything doing my head in..
when connecting to new connection wizard I try to connect to "Connect to a broadband connection that is always on" just gives answer saying should already be configured.. click here to learn more.
Broadband is talk talk, xp pro
Many thanks

try logging into the wifi router to prove the wireless connection.
type the router ip address into internet explorer, usually its something like 192.168.1.1 if for example the ip address of your network card is 192.168.*.** then substitute the ** field for 1
once you eliminate the wifi connectio as an issue it lets you think about the internet sharing side.0 -
