If you're using your laptop on WiFi to access your DSL connection, is there any reason why you don't just use WiFi on your universal?

If you connect the Universal to your laptop it will use the internet connection over the Activesync connection.

:edit: Just reread, but yes you can also set your laptop WiFi connection to Ad Hoc mode to allow WiFi connections to it and use a shared internet connection that way. You better find a HOWTO or something for that though since it is not so straightforward.

Sure you can - via either a direct, active BT / USB ActiveSync connection OR a Wi-Fi p2p connection or, if you install the Widcomm BT stack, even BT PAN p2p.

Please read my related articles - I've published many articles on all these technologies.
