Hi!

I got a server running 24/7, with windows XP on it, that server is connected to the Internet via a wire, but it also does have a Wireless network-card installed. And then I have this laptop (Dell Inspiron e1505/6400) with a wireless card also, so I want to share the Internet from the Desktop (the server) to the laptop, via WiFi.

But I can't get it to work, I have tryd to just check the "Internet sharing" built in to Windows, but the laptop won't discover a network.

What to do? =)
