Hello all, I've searched and scoured the net for an answer to this question. Maybe I'm doing something very simple wrong? Probably.

My Swiftel connection goes into a Belkin Wirelss Router.

I connect with my Mac Os 10.2.8 using an Airport card, my other half connects using an ethernet cable on an XP laptop. (We can't install a Wireless Card, XP just spits it out).

I want to make it so that the XP Laptop will share my Wi fi Internet connection using and Ethernet Cable between the two.

When I connect the 2 computers, the PC informs me it is connected to a LAN at 100mbps, but then when I try to connect to use IE, is just says a server cannot be found.

The XP laptop is configured to find all settings automatically, and I have a Static IP address going into the wirless router.

Is there anything (or everything!) I'm doing wrong?

Cheers
Jon
