Ok, I have the USB connector, it's installed and all that, plus it worked for a while...then it quit working on me. So, I started to reinstall it, but when I tried to install it. I got an error. It said: Internet sharing error, plus my local area connection 2 that popped up when I pluged the USB in said LAC 2 had limited or no connectivity.
Help? :-|

Are you plugging it in directly to the computer, or through a USB hub?

It's going directly to the computer.

Hmm...

Have you checked your internet settings to make sure that its connected to the internet, and that your computer has allowed the internet to go wireless?

Are you connected to the wall or to a wireless router?

The wall, yes, it is allowed, plus my internet is connected.

It just goes about 2/3 of the installation then says: "Internet connection sharing error"

Like I said, it used to work fine, now it doesn't.

Are you running any sort of anti-virus or firewall that blocks some things from connecting to teh internet, you know, like Steam, certain Java applications, or games you play online?

Well, I only have the same stuff enabled as I did last time when it worked.
It might have to do with a network bridge my brother deleted?

EDIT: Must hurry! Must fix! If I want to be in the brawl tourney.
