Hey guys, was hoping you could help me out.
Basically I have a laptop which is connected to the internet via its "wi-fi" and is connected to my desktop pc via a direct ethernet cable. What I want to do is to share the internet on my laptop with my desktop pc.
So the problem is that the connection between my desktop pc and laptop is "unidentified" because of which internet sharing is not possible.I can access shared files from between the desktop and laptop but the connection unidentified.
When running the network troubleshooter on both the desktop and laptop, I get the same error that "ethernet does not have a valid ip configuration". Don't really know what that means.
I have already set the internet on my wifi adapter to shared.
Thanks in advance
