Is it possible to have a laptop with vista, that is connected by ethernet to
an adsl modem, to the internet....share the internet connection with another
laptop running on XP, via wireless, both laptops have Broadcom 802.11b/g
WLAN.
 
Dear jeffrey, I tried the ICS to no avail, I have tried a new connection,
and all I get is that the wireless connection is only local and not local and
internet...this gives me only limited connectivity...(no internet on the XP
laptop)..I was able, the first time I set up a wireless connection, to get on
the internet on the XP laptop through the VISTA laptop wired connection. I
know that this works but am unable to do this again..I am doing something
wrong!!!

Make it easy on yourself and purchase a wireless router instead of
trying to use ICS.
