to connect using a hub to other computers in house, but

Using XP go to Control Panel>Network Interfaces>Wireless
Device. On the Advanced Tab click Internet Connection
Sharing.
Make sure you have the Ethernet plugged into the hub.

Thanks for answer. Sorry JJ, just want to check I
understand correctly, do you mean from Control Panel >
Network Connections? Then the actual Wireless connection
listed (or the LAN connection)? Do I right click on one
of these, going to 'Properties', unsure where you mean
the 'advanced' tab is, if not here?
