[ale] internet sharing on windows

[Bobby Robinson]

Hello, smart ALE'ers.

Sorry for the windows question, but I don't know where else to turn.  I don't know the first thing about windows, so pardon if I mess up the jargon.

I set up the wife's Dell running XP to share internet.  I clicked on control panel, then network connections, right clicked the wireless, checked advanced, told it to share, and chose the wireless connection to share.  Then pressed ok.

Now, her computer won't connect to the net.  If I look at the network connections, I see the wireless connection, and it says connected.  But opening up firefox gives me a page not found.

I don't even know where to start.  For what it's worth, I believe internet connection is working, since I can see her computer now with my t-mobile dash's wireless card.  I try turning it off, now, but I don't see the wireless network in the choices there anymore.  Only lan 1 and lan 2.

Thanks.  I promise not to touch windows ever again after this is fixed.
