Using Multiple Network Adapters for ICS

Guest

I want to use my Wireless card in my laptop to connect to the internet, and
use the built-in wired adapter to share the connection(using a router) with
upto 3 other computers(wireless aswell). Any clues?? I only get as far as
having both
enabled and connected, and the internet connection on the first laptop only.

I assume that you have two wireless routers: one in a remote location
that gives Internet access to the laptop, and one that you'll connect
to the laptop using an Ethernet cable.

Connect one of the second router's LAN ports to the laptop and access
the router's web-based setup page (usually at an address like
http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.16.1.1). Disable the router's
built-in DHCP server. Set the router's LAN address to 192.168.0.254
to be compatible with ICS.

Then, enable ICS on the laptop's wireless network connection.
