I have a desktop and a laptop computer and on both I am running Windows Vista. The desktop computer has wired connection without a router or a modem and it has a Wlan usb card. The laptop is suppose to connect to the desktop pc via Wlan and get internet via there. This was not working since I got the laptop some years back. When I had a Macbook then it worked properly. But when I had a XP laptop then it used to work but then it dropped the connection sometimes. But now with the Vista laptop I am not able to connect to the desktop pc properly. Check the below ipconfig /all for both the machines when they are connected to each other:
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6000]
