Okay I have one ASUS Eeepc net book running windows 7 starter (which you cannot create a homegroup on) and I have a dell inspiron duo(netbook/tablet) which is running windows 7 home premium (which I have created a homegroup on). My dell (W7HP) is using the internet through bluetooth link from my windows mobile(6.1) phone. Asus does not have bluetooth so how in the world do I share the internet connection with it. The computers almost seem to connect, and I turned on ICS, but it just doesnt seem to work. I tried doing adhoc but that shows up as a "public network" and wont let me share anything. This whole home group thing is gonna put me in the nut house. squirrelville here i come haha No but really help the convienance of modern technology is just getting ridiculous.

Do you have a router, or else get a router, given that router prices are cheap nowsadayPlease remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

Hi, First, you should check that both of your netbooks have wireless network adapter, then share your Dell Bluetooth network to the Dell wireless adapter, set Dell wireless adapter as wireless AP. This is only an idea, since I have not devices to have a test, and this method is based on your Bluetooth adapter which could share network to wireless adapter. Of course, wired network is similar with wireless one, the difference is you need one cable to connect the netbooks. Here is one article can be referred to.
