laptop to desktop network HELP!
I have a laptop which is connected through the internet on a wireless network and I have recently bought a new desktop computer but it doesn't have a wireless network card. I assumed I could easily plug a Ethernet cable between my laptop and desktop and share the internet connection.... "that would just be too easy right??" its coming up on my desktop comp as an "unidentified network" with no internet access. It wont let me change the network location to home to match my laptop either. I have enabled my Internet Connection Sharing "ICS" on the Host computer (being the laptop cause it connects to the internet through the wireless" But still NOTHING! I honestly am at a wits end now and i dont know what else to do? I have been looking high and low but no one seems to know how to network my 2 computers together? Help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thank you!!!!!!!!
