Hi all,

Need some help / advice please.

I am on holiday and have my Laptop (running Windows XP and Linux Mint) connected to the Internet via an ethernet cable. (No router)

...I'd like to connect up WDTV Live Media player - through wireless, so it can access the internet through my laptop (Wireless from the Media Player - To - Wireless on the laptop)

...How do I do this please?

Thanks
