    Okay, I have an Ad Hoc network setup with Internet Connection Sharing enabled. All is well and the ICS is working, but it is only on Wireless-B, by default I assume. Both cards can do Wireless-N so my question is, how do I get that Ad Hoc network to work on Wireless-N with these two specific cards. A Dell Wireless 1510 (this is the laptop that has an external WiFi adapter that is connected to the internet and is then broadcasting the Ad Hoc network off of the wireless card in the laptop) and a Intel Wireless 5100.

    Anyone who can figure this out for me is awesome. :)

    Oh both are Vista 64bit. Thanks :)
