484137 2006-09-12 06:53:00 I'm having problems connecting to the internet through my network - I run a ADSL modem through my desktop pc, then have a laptop connected to the desktop via a serial cable. the laptop can share files & printers etc. the only problem is I can't use the internet although the icon comes up in the taskbar that I have internet connection?? is there a simple solution???

ditch the serial connection (which is far slower than adsl) and use ethernet or usb.
