using windows to navigate with linux...

I have one Windows and one MAC connected (WiFi) to a router and then to
Internet.
192.168.2.1 - Router
192.168.2.2 - Windows (WiFi)
192.168.2.3 - MAC (WiFi)

I have one Linux connected to Windows (Ethernet cable RJ-45)
192.168.1.1 - Windows (Ethernet)
192.168.1.2 - Linux (Ethernet)


Can Linux catch the Router and then Internet?

Yes, if you can manage to make the Windows to
forward IP packets. The answer depends on the
type/version of Windows you have, and it is
definitively off-topic in a Linux group.

You have to add a route to the Router tables
telling that the net 192.168.1.x is reachable
via 192.168.2.2.

Also you should add a route in the Linux routing
table telling that the net 192.168.2.x is reachable
via 192.168.1.1. This is not necessary here, as
you have to point the default route of the Linux
host to 192.168.1.1 as well, and that will take
care of the net 192.168.2.x.
