3G Internet Sharing

[GuileX]

I have 3G and would like to share it to over the router to another PC.

I did try Google and searched the site before posting.

I am unable to do this successfully.

Anyone done this before?

what router are you using?

One normally uses a router that includes networking and has a port for a 3G USB modem.

I use a Billion with 3G for when my ADSL goes down - see http://www.billionsa.com/product/3g/bipac7402x-3g-adsl2-wireless-vpn-router.html

Alternatively Google is your friend: if you are running Windows see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Using-ICS-Internet-Connection-Sharing

I assume you have a 3G modem plugged into one computer, which is connected to a normal non-3G capable router, over which you would like to share the connection.

This worked for me: http://superuser.com/questions/2416...r-as-a-switch-for-internet-connection-sharing

Spot on Viva.

Thanks I will have a look.

For a pain free permanent solution, you'll want a dedicated router. My suggestion, get a RouterBoard 751G

Get a Huawei B 683, the best
