    Hi,

    I have a Meteor Hotspot linked to my Laptop via the wireless card and am very happy with it.
    Now I want to setup an older PC (with XP) to use the Hotspot for internet access via the USB.
    Unfortunately the older PC doesn't have a wireless card and I can't find a guide or any info regarding how to setup the network connection etc to connect via the USB.
    Has anyone done this?
    What connections and settings do I need?

    You plug it in with a USB cable, and install the software. That's it.

    Tried already but the meteor hotspot program didn't open at all.
    Installed the software but do I have to setup the device as a network connection??
