The D has wired connection to 100mbit without router or modem and it has a WLAN USB card. The L is supposed to connect to the D via WLAN and get internet through there. This hasn't worked since i got the laptop in Sept 2007, except when other laptops are here. When I had a MacBook staying for a week it worked flawless, when i had an XP laptop i worked but droped out occationally. Now i'm single again and my lonely L won't connect properly to D. I'll post ipconfig /all for both machines when they are "connected" to each other but only with local/limited connection.
