Hello! I'm new here.. I've joined specificly to try to get help with one thing.. ICS using bluetooth. I've been to other forums trying to get help with this but none of them have helped.. So, here I am. :) here's the thing. I have dialup internet on this computer, (dell desktop dimension 2400, windows xp home edition SP2) and I want to share it with my laptop, (hp pavalion with windows xp professional, media center edition, SP2) using bluetooth dongles and IVT BlueSoleil on both computers. I need walk-through help, cause I dont know much about this.. thanks alot! -Shane

Alright i've got it all figured out but I just have one last problem. When I go to the properties of my internet connection, then to advanced, I have the internet sharing option, and I can enable it. The problem is, there is supposed to be a pop up menu where I can choose which network I want to grant access to... But it isn't there. Does anyone know how I can get it there?

I think you would have to do something like set up a "Personal Area Network", then the connection between your 2 bluetooth devices should act like a normal network. Albeit significantly slower.
