Hi,
I am running on vista 32, and am having trouble connecting to the internet via the home network (ad hoc, my dad's laptop, xp home, is the host). On XP, you can go to the window to connect to an available network, click the 'advanced properties' link, click the 'advanced' button, and you have a dialogue for changing the type of network you can hook up to. How can I get to this dialogue in Vista? And if I can't, how do I change this setting? I think it is the problem, as I can hook up to a router network, and have internet, but not an pier to pier network for internet. Help much appreciated.
