I have a cpu that is wireless to a router. This computer
also has a wired nic card in it too. I would like to
connect a wired laptop to this cpu and leach the internet
connection off the wireless. The laptop can not do the
wireless stuff. When i connect the laptop, i can see both
the laptop and the cpu i am trying to leach off of. The
problem is, that i can not get any internet connection on
the laptop. PLEASE HELP

By default, ICS uses the 192.168.0.x IP address range. If the
wireless router also uses that range, change the router to a different
range (e.g. 192.168.1.x) so that it doesn't conflict with ICS.

Enable ICS on the cpu that has the wired and wireless connections, and
tell it to share the wireless connection. Configure the laptop as an
ICS client. Details here:
