Internet Connection Sharing With A 3rd Party

« on: May 19, 2008, 04:06 PM »

Dear All,

I need your assistance.

I want to connect two computers B and C together so that computer C can access the internet.

Initially,there is a Computer A that is the Host and is connected directly to the internet.

Computer A and B have a LAN connection between them while Computer B and C have wireless connection between them and they can all see each other and share files.

Computer B can access the internet but it is a client(i.e it is already sharing internet connection from computer A).

The structure is shown below:

Computer C(Third party, IP=automatic)-------wireless------>Computer B(client, IP=automatic)-------LAN----->computer A(Host, IP=192.168.0.1)

Computer A had an IP address of 192.168.0.1 and computer B and C have their IP address set to automatic.
If I attempt to use Internet connection sharing wizard on computer B so that computer C can share from it, the IP address of computer B will bet set to

192.168.0.1 and this will conflict with that of computer A. Moreso, the internet connection wizard always says that for any system that is to allow internet sharing on it, then, its IP address will be set to 192.168.0.1.

How then can I make computer C share internet connection from computer B without causing this conflict of address?

Please help out.

To solve the problem, you have to use LAN connections for all three pc, just like most cyber cafe does and computer A become the server or Alternatively you can make computer A WLAN hotspot so that computer C can see it and log onto it.

This issue can b resolved in different ways, but i think the best is listed below

step 1: connect your internet modem or whatever directly to your wireless router ethernet port

step 2: connect all your three PCs into the other LAN ports of your Wireless router

Step 3: although, u can set your router to use static ips but let the DHCP b enabled, so that all you three PCs will automatically be given a dynamic IP address.

Step 4: then go to control panel-> internet option-> connection to set d option to " automatically detect connection"

With these, i think u done!
