Hi all,
I recently purchased a new laptop with Vista and tried to share it's internet connection (ADSL modem) with another laptop running XP through a wireless ad-hoc network. The problem is that IE and ping don't work but some programs like Skype and Limewire work. I have done this sharing on XP before, but I don't know what is wrong with Vista.
I read some new issues of ad-hoc internet sharing in Vista and did all of them. But it doesn't work.
