Default connect network to internet access


I have read many posts and gotten nowhere. AD HOC ICS Nothing works.

I want to connect several computers and my laptop to a switch and use
my laptops wireless connection to access the internet.

I realize this is a slow connection. My only internet option is a
wireless router. The laptop is used as network security connection.

Hope u understand what I have written.

Default connect network to internet access

Hi
If you have a Wireless Router (or planning to buy one) you connect every
thing like this, http://www.ezlan.net/network/router.jpg , and do not need
Ad-Hoc or and ICS.
If you can not use a Router at the Internet connection, the computer that is
connected to the Internet (Host) needs a second Wire Network Card.
You have to use a Wireless Cable/DSL Router configured as a Switch with an
Access point and connect it via wire to the Host's second card.
All the other computers can be plugged into the Router's switch, and connect
to it's Wireless AP.
After connection is established ICS has to be switched On only on the Host
and it should feeding the Router's Switch.
The Router has to be configured in this manner,
http://www.ezlan.net/router_AP.html
Please Note that the page above describes only the principle , you have to
adopt it it ICS, and the router's core IP has to be set to match what is
needed for ICS.
