does anyone know how to share a wireless connection with ethernet on Windows
Hi, Is it possible to take a wireless WiFi connection under windows XP Pro and share it with the included ethernet port? Never done this on windows. Any ideas how to set up a nat type thing? Thanks Scott
You should be able to. Internet Connection Sharing Manager use to do it. I've done it before. The XP pro box will act as the DHCP server. Best Regards, Billy L. Irwin Irwin Solutions 207 Strange Ct.

Yeah that's what I figured. It doesn't seem to be forwarding though. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Billy L.

Sure: Control panel > Network Connections Open up the properties of the wireless NIC and goto the advanced tab. Tick the checkbox to enable Internet Connections Sharing (ICS) and hit OK all the way out.

I tried that, the connection never forwarded. both sides set up then you couldn't route between them. Very odd. On Sep 1, 2010, at 6:15 AM, Frank Ventura wrote:

Hmm, was DHCP client service enabled on the client side? Any pertinent firewall issues? Was the host's wireless NIC on a subnet other than 192.168.0.x so it won't conflict with ICS?
