DWL-2100AP Problem Pls Help !

[jannysoft]

Hi there ...

Here is my problem, i`ve got a vodacom broadband modem connected to one of my laptops. but i want to share the connection to another 2 wireless laptops witch will be in the same room. So i went to a local pc shop and they recommandad me to buy a wi-fi access point. So i did that, after that i connected the AP to the laptop with the modem and run the basic setup wizard. the other 2 laptops can see the wireless network but they cant access the internet trough the laptop with the vodacom modem.

Here is a basic diagram of what i want to do:

Broadband Modem (connected trough USB port to the laptop, internet connection sharing is ON)
|
|
Laptop (with a lan card with ip address 192.168.0.1 connected to the AP with a network cable)
|
|
Access Point (configured for a basic wireless network)
|
|
2 Wireless Laptops (connected trough AP and receiving internet from the laptop with the broadband modem)

Here is Emulator of my AP:

So if there is anybody who can help me set up something similar please share your knowledge with me.

Thanks in advance.

Run a proxy server on the laptop with the data card. CC Proxy Server

Once set up, just go to inernet options ( for other laptops )---- Connections --- Lan Settings and then check Proxy server, put in IP address of server and port ( its best to go advanced here and rather put in each ip/port for each connection because afaik msn uses socks which works on the 1080 port and not the general hhtp port 808 )

You set the default gateway and DNS as 192.168.0.1 on the two client Laptops?
