ICS, pick up internet over wifi, share over ethernet, possible?
I have a friend who is sharing her neighbor's wifi, will ICS share
internet from wifi over her LAN adapter? I was thinking of connecting the laptop to the DVD player with ethernet so the television can pick up the internet through the DVD player. Her TV is ancient and doesn't have wifi. |

I finally got access to the hardware, enabled ICS on the wifi, connected a LAN cable from the laptop to the DVD player, problem solved. |

One thing we learned from your experiment is that both the laptop and the DVD player have Gigabit Ethernet ports. The DVD player surprises me. -- Char Jackson |
