  3. Giving a Computer Internet from Another Computer

    One of my computer has internet via wireless, and the other does not.

    Computer A: Windows Server 2003, connected via wireless
    Computer B: Windows Server 2003, no internet (this is the computer I want to give internet!)

    I want to give computer B internet from computer A by connecting them via Ethernet, and bridging the connection. I did this, and it did not work. Any thoughts?

    Can you connect a Windows 10 computer to wireless internet?

    Problem with wireless connection

    Hi,

    What is the make and model of your computer?

    I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned in the following link:

    Wired and wireless network problems

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/...1&v1h=win81tab1&v2h=win7tab1&v3h=winvistatab1

    Also applies to Windows 10.

    If the issue persist, I suggest you to un-install the current version of wireless card driver installed and then try to download and install wireless card drivers from your computer manufacturer website and check.

    Follow the steps on how to un-install the wireless card driver.


    • Press Windows Key + X.

    • Select Device Manager.

    • Expand Network adaptors.

    • Right click on wireless card driver and select
      Un-install.
    Windows will prompt you to confirm the device’s removal. Click
    OK to remove the driver.

    After the un-installation is complete, reboot your computer as soon as possible.

    Computer will load the network adaptor card. Now you may check with the issue.

    If the above steps doesn't help, I suggest you to login to other computer which has internet connectivity, visit the computer manufacturer website of the issue computer and then download the latest driver
    for the wireless card and save it to a external flash drive. Once you successfully save the drivers setup file, insert the flash drive on the issue computer and then try to install the drivers and check with the issue.

    Please reply us on the status of the issue to assist you further.
