Network w/ dongle?

Still not working really, I have retried the setup. It still keeps going to "manually configured" on the left hand side, on the info bit.

I just redid the wizard on my PC. This time I changed the name of the network, and it asked me to restart. After restart, I Came back to the connection, and now it is back down as being manually configured....

After making it go back onto Normal, It just says NUL in that same place. :l
But it will now actually automatically configure the PC one. Also, When changing any settings like, auto configure, from manual configured, It will say that the networks screen isn't responding, or just bring up an error, saying that There has been a problem, send report, don't send (You know what I mean).

Ok, the screwing up on the network screen, like I said, which gives me an error report, is when I try and click "allow windows to configure my wireless settings",

WHILE, The normal software stuff, that The dongle came with, is running. that being ZDLAN ultility.

EDIT: Limited Or No connectvity Message, The connection status, It says "You might not be able to access the interent or some network resources. This problem occurred because the network did not assign a network address to the computer"

Does that mean that there is a Nice big problem on the PC side ? :confused:

Also: When trying to click repair on the Laptop, on the connection, it says

"Windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following action cannot be completed: Renewing your IP address

For assistance, contact the person who manages your network"

Ok...

I am resetting it all up again, WITHOUT THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE supplied with the Dongle.
I believe that this has been the problem!
I will let you know how It is going...

Also

Thank you so much for your help so far!

Ok now, I have managed this so far...

This is a print of my Wired Connection, and my Wireless connection.

I have now managed to get both the laptop and the PC to ping each other!
And I can file share, and I'm guessing printer sharing is also working...
NOW, the big problem!! Internet Sharing across both connections!!

I want the wireless connection, to have Internet access, but It means I will have to share the connection off the wired connection..

How do I do this ?
