USB or BlueTooth?
I've set up an internet sharing connection between the desktop and laptop.
I got offered the Packard bell easy network set up at a good price which plugs into the plug in the wall at one end and USB into the PC at the other.
The desktop's not going anywere so dont mind having a permanent USB, but would have liked to make the laptop wireless.
Was looking for a wirelss USB or bluetooth solution but cant seem to find a male and female USB if that makes sence?
Any ideas?
TIA

I tried to set up a Bluetooth LAN in my bedroom as i have a dongle permanently attached to my PC to allow my phone to connect to it. In the end i gave up (connection was p!ss poor) and set up a proper (well almost) network using a Draytek Router/Hub/WAP all-in-one McThingy. This plugs into the wall and the PC plugs into it letting me wander round the house on my laptop (wirelessly connected, with my desktop PC off) on the internet. I love it.
Only cost £50 odd from eBay.

In my experience, bluetooth connections for pcs are unreliable & difficult to set up. Use 802.11g wireless. http://www.draytek.co.uk/products/vigor2600v.html
