I thought I should get back to updating this post. Here's what I have done to make this work since I last posted:
I went and took the plunge with upgrading the XP desktop to Vista. The reason I did this was because of an additional hardware issue with a different style cellular modem. At any...
I went 'round and 'round with some of these same issues. I had somewhat of a unique setup: XP as host, a Vista client and a Linux client, with the XP host using a cellular modem for internet (I live in the boonies with not much available for Internet services). But, what I wanted to do was use...
I have a posted response to someone on another forum with a solution that seems to have worked for a similar problem. Here's the link:

You said it was only two weeks old? I'd bring it back and make someone fix it under warranty while you still have one. That being said, maybe take a look at drivers for ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery in Device Manager>Batteries>Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery...
There should be an icon on your taskbar, provided you have the Power box ticked under System icons. Right click your taskbar, select Properties, select the Notification Area tab, should be the last option on that tab. This gives you the option of whether to display the battery level "meter" in...
I'm not sure how deep you've dug into the power settings so, if you've already done this, I'll apologize in advance. Try this: Go into Control Panel, Hardware and Sound, Power Options, Change Plan settings (for whichever power plan you want to edit), click "Change advanced power settings", in...
I've got two specific events of possible interest. By the way, in switching things around and using XP as host again, the network works fine. As soon as I try to use Vista Home Premium as host, that's when the problems of no client connectivity to Internet occur again. Safe Mode with...
I appreciate your response, linney. I had already checked out the first and last links you posted, and the tech library info made me go back and verify some settings. But, I still haven't found a solution that changes anything. Also, I had previously installed the LLTP topology software on...
Okayyyy..... I haven't changed anything, however, now the Linux box and XP box can still see and access files on the Vista host but the Vista cannot see either of the other two nor their files. The only thing that has happened (at least that I have done) since my last post is a reboot of all...
My Vista Home Premium laptop is connected to the Internet via a Sierra Wireless Aircard 860 (a cellular modem). Although I have ICS enabled and an ethernet connection attached to a 16 port switch, neither an XP or linux PC will connect to the Internet. Both of those client PC's will, however...
