How would i share my net connection via bluetooth? I have two USB bluetooth dongles. My PC is connected to the net via a wired ADSL and i want to connect my laptop with my PC via Bluetooth. I think there is a way to share the connection via the bluetooth. How?? NOTE: 1-I'm runing XP Pro on my pc and win98 on my Laptop. 2-I'm able to send files from PC to Laptop and can see the BT icon on my Laptop changes to green, but I can't surf the net. Please help me. Thanks in advance ..

Have you set up and configured Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) on the computer with the Internet connection?
If not you need to do so. Run the Network Setup Wizard in Windows XP and follow the instructions.

In you circumstances, ICS isn't an option, its essential. If you cannot get it to work then you cant share the Internet.
