Can I please get some Help?
I'm trying to SHARE an Internet Connection from a P2 Windows ME computer
("Host") TO a P2 Windows XP computer ("Client")--I am already sharing files between the 2--but NO Internet Connection can be found on the XP (Client)--this is a Dial-up Internet Connection and the File-sharing (and supposedly Internet Connection-sharing) accomplished with a Genelink USB Cable/software. So how DO I get my XP to receive the Internet Connection from the M-E? Thanks In Advance, Neil |

If so, I'm sorry that I can't help, because I'm not familiar with that product and its software. If you want to use the Internet Connection Sharing capability that's built into Windows, I can help. I've written some web pages with full details.
