Rep:
Wireless connection sharing over wired network?
I have 1 computer that has both wireless and wired network cards, 3 that only have ethernet, and 1 4-port router.
2 are running Linux Mint 13 & 1 is still being configured as a home server. All are Desktop computers.
on my wired network I don't have any internet connection but I need to allow all to access the internet. My wired network is on 1 ip addressing while my wireless is on another.
here is where it gets alittle complicated....I am connecting to the internet via my neighbors wireless while still needing to keep my LAN up and accessible.
How can I easily share out my wireless over ethernet to give internet access to my whole network?
all are DHCP addressing.
