Connecting two pc's
Posts: n/a
But is it posible to connect two PC's in a lan like manner using two
usb-dongles.
Or do I require a bluetooth access point.
Or should I go for 'real' wireless lan.
Tia, Jean.

The problem is that the connection is not too stable, and the speed is very low, compared to a WLL. Which dongle and sw do you have? Win 2k/xp or Linux? -- # changes nobody to samuele to reply $email =~ s/nobody/samuele/ ;

It's stable, I've been connected for hours. Of course YMMV depending on hardware/software quality, and OS freshness/state. -- Mauricio Freitas Handhelds, mobile: http://www.geekzone.co.nz Bluetooth guides: http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=449
