I have a Windows XP PC, and a Mac with Airport, so it is wireless.

How can I share the wireless capabilities of my Mac, with the Windows PC? So that the Windows PC also has wireless access?

Thanks! 🙂

MAC: System Prefs-->Sharing-->Internet-->Airport Options

I can't go further because I don't have an airport card...sorry. You could also check "Ethernet" off to share the connection via ethernet and then just plug in the mac.

I think you can also do something with the wireless via Airport Admin Utility

You could search, or read the FAQ. Simple answer, just like the million other threads you started.

Heres a thread about networking. You more than likey need to do what the second poster said of internet sharing over airport. Any way i have not done the two but if you mix the two in you should be fine.
