I have a mate who is trying to run a second PC through his T Stick. Setup is one PC connected to the web on the T Stick and now he wants to add another PC through the current PC. He is running Vista on both. Anyone know how to do this? I have had a search through the forums as I thought I had seen this question before but no luck.

Vista should have an internet connection sharing component somewhere. Are the machines already networked? Try sharing the TStick connection in the network settings in Control Panel.

It would be helpful for future readers to say what actually worked....

The instructions from Zocster led him to the solution apparently, looks like he wasnt networked between PC's.

Cant you just get a special ethernet cable and bridge the ethernet and t-stick connections in the network centre thing?
