Sharing Wifi Internet Via Ethernet
Dec 20, 2009I've got two computers in my room: a Toshiba laptop and a desktop computer (both running Windows 7) I built a few months ago. The laptop gets great wifi reception, 4/5 bars, while the desktop struggles to get one bar. I want to connect the laptop to the PC via Ethernet and use the laptop's Internet connection. I'm having troubles doing this.
Here's what I've done thus far:Disabled the desktops wifi. Enabled "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection" on the laptop's Ethernet card. Plugged in the cable.
This is where I hit the brick wall. On both computers, it comes up as "unidentified network". I try creating a homegroup on the desktop, but I encounter an error "Windows could not set the network settings" and "You can try to change this setting later in the Network and Sharing Center." I look in the Network and Sharing Center, and it says "Homegroup: Joined" as if no error occurred at all. So I try to join the homegroup on the laptop. It says "Larry from LARRY-PC has created a homegroup" so it recognizes it, but then it says "Windows could not setup a homegroup on this computer" when I try to put in the password.
I start the HomeGroup Troubleshooter, and it troubleshoots network problems. After that, it says "Local Area Connection" doesn't have a valid IP configuration: Fixed" So then I try joining it again, and get the same issue. I go through the HomeGroup Troubleshooter again, and I click "the problem is not fixed" and get a list of problems I don't have.
What can I do?
Sharing 3G Dongle Internet Connection With WiFi Router?
Jan 4, 2012I'm switching from landline ISP to mobile ISP (dongle). So I'm thinking of sharing 3G dongle (ZTE MF190) internet connection with other PC, device etc, through D-Link modem+router(DSL-2640B) that I use for landline internet connection before. Is this possible? I notice that I cannot use homegroup via D-Link anymore after connecting to 3G dongle. I've tried ICS (internet connection sharing) but to no avail.

Aug 2, 2009I have 2 systems one with windows 7 and an older one with XP. The Windows 7 machine connects to the internet through a network adapter and gets its IP adress automatically and works perfectly both in xp and in 7. The Windows 7 machine is connected to the XP Machine via a second adapter (pci) and a crosslinked cable.
Before Windows 7 IN WINDOWS XP the 7 machine used an ip like 192.168.0.1 and ICS to give internet to the second machine (which got its ip automatically)
I tried a lot of things (ex. static fixed ips enable the computers to share files but not the internet connection) but i still keeps saying its an Unidentified Network / Public Network for the second connection (between the computers)
Note: - ICS is enabled for the internet connection.
- Back when both computers had XP the second XP computer obtained its IP Adress automatically and the internet was shared .. with 7 on the second (xp) computer doesnt aquire the right adress ever.

Nov 15, 2011Is it possible to connect 2 laptops - one windows 7 the other xp to just share files. I've done this with 2 xp laptops easily with a cat5 cable.
We are downloading pictures from a camera to one pc and need to then transfer to the other. There's no internet involved.
What would be the best way to do this? I can't get it to work with the cat 5; crossover seems to involve the internet, usb uses transfer software and isn't what I need. I just need to copy over images from a shared folder from one laptop to another.

View 2 Replies View RelatedInstalling Fedora On Windows Virtual PC?
Oct 24, 2011A while ago, I installed Fedora 13 on my Windows Virtual PC with the help of an online guide that I cannot seem to find anymore.So, it DOES work, despite a few different threads out there trying to convince you that VirtualBox in the way to go.Now I'm trying to install Fedora 15, the current version. I'm sure Fedora 16 will be out in a couple of weeks, but I don't think that will make a difference.I did find this link, but it isn't the same. The old one I speak of had a setup guide in it and also showed you how to install a few applications so that Fedora Linux is a pleasant Operating System to work in. This one only shows a setup guide for the basic OS and I believe how to get your network working.When I followed this guide, I saw a blueish screen with a 10 second count-down, indicating that Linux was booting up. I had to readjust my settings a bit (RAM, specifically), as Windows Virtual PC gave me a notification that I was low on system resources. I at first put at at 3GB, then lowered it to 1.25 GB of RAM. My system has 4 GB. Throughout my installation attempt, I was watching my computer's Resource Monitor. The RAM was never maxed out, and CPU usage is not an issue at all.Could the problem be that I'm downloading the wrong file? I remember the old link I used mentioned something about Fedora Live. The name of this file I'm using is Fedora-15-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso. That obviously seems like a Live file, to me. Only difference, is, I'm using the 64-bit version, as opposed to the 32-bit version because I'm on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.

Apr 25, 2011I am unable to share an internet connection between two computers in a homegroup.File sharing is OK. The ADSL modem is connected (via USB, no ethernet) to a desktop, the desktop to a laptop via a router. The problem is that after opening network/adapter settings/LAN/properties on the desktop, NO sharing tab appears, only a 'networking' tab. On the laptop both tabs appear...How can I get around this? I know I should really get a modem that connects directly to the route, but don't want to waste any time/money if it doesn't resolve the problem

May 19, 2012I've spent the last day running in circles trying to find a simple solution. I have two Win 7 machines located a few hundred miles apart. I currently have computer A (Local) connecting to computer B (remote) via UltraVNC. This works perfect except, when printing documents, I need to print to my local printer, which means on my remote machine I need to add a printer that is physically here locally. I've looked at IIS, IPP, Google Cloud drive, another service which costs. I think IPP could be the answer, but I can't find any step-by-step style of instructions out there. I have a limited understanding of this stuff, so really looking for a detailed solution.

The bandwidth is there on the lan side to support a faster connection, but it keeps falling back to the internet even when a local computer is used for a VPN.
