Yup, they're reading each other fine - The connection stays up 24/7....I just can't work ouit how to share the net. The client PC just used to log itself onto the net automatically whenever the host was online.

One thing: make sure your wireless cards are on the same channel and that all
proper keys are set up.
The two PCs are reading each other fine, I have the status of the connection in my system tray and it's fine.
I just can't figure out how to get the interweb upstairs, using the downstairs connection.

Basically, I have one computer upstairs, one computer downstairs - The downstairs PC is the host - It has the ADSL modem plugged into it, and a wireless card through which it sends the signal to the upstairs computer which has the exact same model of wireless card inside.
They both read each other signals correctly and I've pinged them both and they're fine in that area. The upstairs computer has no modem.

I know what I'm missing is a small step because everything else is working as it used too, I just cant access the net upstairs.
