Help Me Geeks Before I Kill Bill Fucking Gates

[McJim]

How many beers did you drink last night before trying to get computers to talk to each other? Have you tried fixing the problem when sober?

I find that helps

[The_Dover]

I was sober'ish.

I'll try scracha's freeware solution tonight (when I get home from teh pub)

Failing that it's goin in the pond.

Fuck that... just get a wireless access point and hook it up to the D-Link. You can get a Belkin one for like $100 tops. Much easier, and takes a lot of load off of the laptop that would otherwise have to route all your internet traffic as well.

I'm not running an internet cafe bro, I just want to be able to share the internet connection from my desktop (or floor top as it is) with the craptop.

Not rocket science and not worth 4 tanks of gas or 5 boxes of piss and more electronic crap that will end up in a box in a year or two.

Get one of those... plug the ethernet cable from the 302G into that, as well as the ethernet cables from both machines. Presto. Done.

Sed it already. He's trying to piggyback his laptop through the desktop. Routing internet traffic creates almost zero load BTW (and if it's used as a proxy server it'll make repeat downloads quicker and save some bandwidth usage)

Wonder how he got on?

Hmm...

What about power consumption and general ease of use.

Having to have two computers on just to connect to the net seems a bit weird.

And also, if she's getting suspicious she can cut off your porn supply easy as anything

Read my original post will yer, I suggested he gets a wifi adsl modem. And while you're at it, read my 2nd post. She can't cut off his porn supply as she's going through his computer not the other way around.

If you can't be bothered recording it and putting it on YouTube I ain't interested.
