    I've got a BT Home Hub installed at the moment with an 8mb connection shown below:

    To connect to the PC I'm using an Ethernet cable which is working perfectly.

    I have another computer downstairs & want to hook it up to the same connection. I was told that I could use a Belkin Wireless G Network Desktop Card also shown below:

    Now I've installed the card, but there's no instructions on how to get it to work with the BT Home Hub. I've been able to share the Internet connection between the 2 computers when I was on 2mb Broadband using an Alcatel Speedtouch 330 shown below:

    All I had to do was go into the dialup connection I was using to connect to Broadband, click properties, advanced, and then tick the box saying "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection" shown below:

    Now seeing as Broadband with the BT Home Hub is 'always on' and there's no need to connect via the above method (double clicking the connection icon and clicking connect), I'm not sure how to set it up to be wireless using the Belkin Wireless Card I have installed.

    I would appreciate any help with this, as I've no idea whatsoever how to share connections through 2 computers using the BT Home Hub!
