Hi there.

I'm stuck out out of town and need to use my laptop. My friend does not have WiFi and only has one Ethernet connection.

Can I plug my n900 into his PC (USB) then connect to the internet over WiFi from my laptop to the n900 ?

Sounds a bit complicated but would be cool ?

Any ideas?

J

I'm assuming you made a typo when you said connect through wifi since you said he didn't have WiFi.
BUT you don't need a USB connection, just connect the laptop using ethernet and make an ad-hoc hotspot, then bridge it with the ethernet connection, many tutorials for this on the internet, just google it.
