Re: Desktop & Laptop networking help
 

Now I'm following ya, xplant. The networking setup actually went pretty smooth on both machines, except for the internet part.

Your theory sounds possible, Denis...I know on the 98SE machine I had to put in the CD and install something, but I didn't see "what". It's gotta be a simply little hangup like that, as everything else is working, the laptop has an excellent signal, but no internet...

Got it...for some reason my desktop CPU didn't have Internet Sharing installed, so I grabbed my cd uloaded it, and so far, so good...

My whole house is networked with cat 5, including the TV. I have high speed internet, so I can upload and download really quickly. (If you haven't noticed, I've gone from a newbie to a journeyman in about 5 days..I think. I hope that you guys and gals aren't tired of me posting here)
