I can't set up my computer to share the internet
connection. "Other computers cannot connect to the
internet throught this computer"

Why?

The Internet sharing option is only available when all of these are
true:

1. There are at least two enabled, connected network connections: one
for the Internet, and one or more for the local area network.

2. The Internet Connection Firewall is disabled on the local area
network connection(s).

3. The Internet connection isn't bridged.
