I am having Windows Vista Home Basic + SP1

Please guide me how to get this option.

Thanks,

Hello,
Did you actually test this technique with more than 2 computers?
I have used it several times in hotel rooms while travelling with 2 laptops, but today I tried with a third one, and never managed. It will connect, or rather look connected, but cannot even ping the sharing laptop. I repaired both connections, restarted the sharing, etc to no avail. Another laptop gave the same result.
All of them running XP SP3: 2 eeePC901, 1 Gateway1025MX sharing
