Sounds as if your router may need to be set to enable wireless connection and enable DHCP, this alocates your wireless adapter an I.P Address automatically. If this is alraedy the case, check the properties of your adapter to see if it's set to recieve I.P address automatically. If still no joy find your routers I.P. address and DNS address (this is what you type in your web browser to set it up). If your router is 192.168.2.1 or similair, set your adapter at 192.168.2.2 and the same DNS address normally 255.255.255.0. Restart both pc and router and try again. Also make sure network sharing has been set up via the XP wizard.

i have the same problem with my xp...
i've setup my wifi adapter as an adhoc connection so that my other devices like laptop,iphone, etc could connect to the internet through (ICS) my desktop which is connected to a wired LAN...
I can connect to the ad hoc setup, i can also browse the internet, but my problem is when i disconnect to this ad hoc and try to connect again, it won't give me the correct ip anymore...i put 192.168.0.1 to my wifi adapter so that i could distribute 192.168.0.2 - and above to my devices connecting to it...
I solved this problem by shutting down, not restarting but shutting down, which is tedious and not so simple..
question: is there a way or workaround, in which i don't have to shutdown my desktop whenever my wifi connection get disconnected to my wireless devices?
