When you say it works for you, did you connect your phone to your PC through USB networking? or did you use wifi (true wireless)?

I'm trying to establish internet sharing when connecting through USB networking.

"I wonder if that's the problem? (win7 64bit) "

Maybe, but I should have another go at usb networking using madde developer to connect n900 to your pc via usb and or research into bridging connections on your pc, any way good luck and post a note if you succeed.
cheers

Seems like a Windows 7 problem:

Even a computer with Windows XP can't get onto the internet. Thanks for your replies anyway. I'll post back if I find any solution.

Cheers.

It's not that simple.
Lets say you don't use the ad-hoc network for internet, but just to fool the phone, (a waste of battery, you can create dummy network in a better way if you follow the wiki), You need a couple of things for it to work :
  • Default route to your computer USB Adapter IP address. Also know as gateway : for example 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.USB_IP
  • IP Address for name-server on your phone.
  • IP address for your phone's USB adapter in the same subnet as your computers adapter. for example : computer 192.168.1.1 phone : 192.168.1.2
  • The computer needs to be able to NAT your connections, meaning internet connection sharing should be configured to share your internet (network card to router) to the usb network adapter.
  • If the phone is on "Obtain Automatically / DHCP" your computer needs a dhcp server service running, usually starts along side ICS pre-configured.
  • Again. follow the WIKI!

The easiest answer might be using this : http://connectify.me/ (you will need a wifi card/usb)
