hi how can i setup My Laptop with Wireless LAN so it allows Some Laptop with Wireless LAN to use My Laptop with Wireless LAN's internet connection?

You can use internet connection sharing from the laptop with wireless LAN. Configure it at your network places.

Where is your wireless switch/router in all this? The second laptop with wireless should get it's internet connection straight from a wireless switch/router just as the first laptop should do.

your diagram is not possible

wireless access point is where all laptop should connect..... not your laptop....

pwede man cguro na ug ad-hoc connection... i think. from laptop to laptop via wireless lan.

[juantamad]

yeah try ad-hoc connection... i think so...

[UCAV]

nope ad-hoc won't work.............

i suppose this will work. "my laptop with wireless LAN" will act as a proxy server for all wireless clients. Just configure the internet connection sharing in this.

[UCAV]

"my laptop with wireless LAN" will act as a proxy server for all wireless clients. -------> It still won't work

remember the wireless LAN of the laptop is a client.... it is not at access point.... you can ad-hoc it but you will lose connection with the access point.....

[Tamblot]

you have a point ucav. though i haven't tested this in actual but its worth a try.

The adhoc wireless has its gateway pointing to "my laptop with wireless lan" (LWL for short) and the LWL will do the internet connection sharing at its wired LAN card.

When i have the time, i will come up with a set up on this.
