    rockergal, open your network connection properties (where you set IP address), in that window, set it to "Obtain an IP address automatically" and "Obtain DNS server address automatically".

    Make sure it's on the wireless adapter...
    The ethernet one is DHCP enabled already... But thanks, I forgot to mention that HUGE detail...

    But, do you know why it happened? You were wrong about just plugging a computer into another computer and having a network. Windows 7 does that. Even with XP. Something just got changed unexpectedly and I've never seen it happen that way so any more info you have might help me help others! Thanks!
