How To Share USB Wireless Adapter
Mar 25, 2011
I am living on a houseboat, and the home owner where I moor the boat has provided an unsecured wireless network for my internet usage. I have a USB wireless adapter that is mounted on the roof of the boat giving me great reception. I have successfully been using it so far. The problem is... I have a laptop as well and to date I've been unplugging the roof mounted USB adapter from the tower and moving it to the laptop when accessing the internet from the laptop.I'm confident there is some way to run the roof mounted adapter to one machine and allow both machines to use this internet connection, but so far I haven't been able to make it work. When I try to turn on Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) I get an ip error ( "There is an IP address conflict with another system on the network"). I can't make any adjustments to the router, as I don't have access to it.So I have this hardware to work with:A laptop with wireless built in a tower with 2 available wireless adaptors (including the roof mount)A wireless router (but no wired internet connection).

I have an several devices in the household that have USB ports, such as TV's, stereo, etc that I would like to network together & share media from my computer.Due to the setup of the household my only option is to connect the devices with a wireless USB adapter which I haven't yet purchased.The TV & stereo for example will allow mass storage devices connected via USB. If I purchased a wireless usb adapter to connect it to my computer, can I assign a drive/partition to that usb port to share the media? Is there special software that's required to do this?

I have internet through an ethernet cable. I was trying to use a Thomson ADSL router from O2 to share this ethernet connection wirelessly. I was told this is not possible(can give detail if needed). What is the best and cheapest wireless AP that takes an ethernet input and outputs wireless+ethernet(option) ?I have been looking at LINKYS wrt54g for about 20.

What i would like to do from here is plug a cable from my wired lan to the internet plug on the wireless router to create a wireless network with internet in the house.

Below is how I have established network between my PC and my laptop at home (being novice in networking, it took me few days to achieve the feat). And it is working perfectly. I can easily share files between them.Laptop
IP Address: 192.168.1.4
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.2Desktop
IP Address: 192.168.1.5
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.2ASUS RT-N10+ Router,/b>
IP Address: 192.168.1.4
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.2
I have connected the Desktop PC to the router using a LAN cable, and laptop to router over WiFi. Both, PC and laptop are running on Windows 7 OS, are on same HomeGroup, have same username / password. Also, I have connected the Ethernet cable to LAN port 1 of the router.Click here to view a graphical representation of the network. Can't post image here, because I don't have 10 reputation points.Now, what I want is use connect to Internet using a 3G USB modem on one device and share it over the network on the other. I tried Huawei and Micromax 3G USB modem. Both obtain a new IP address whenever I connect to Internet (means they have dynamic IPs). Rest, both have Subnet Mask as 255.255.255.255 and Default Gateway as 0.0.0.0. In that case, I cannot directly share Internet from the modem. Preferred DNS is blank for now in both, laptop and PC.What I am planning to do is to connect to Internet on laptop using the 3G modem and share the Internet connection over laptop's Wi-Fi (as hotspot) using Connectify, which I have done already. That, I suppose, will broadcast a static IP to connect to.Now what I can't figure out is that what changes should I make to the network settings of the router and the PC so that PC connects to the Internet broadcast by Connectify?

We just built a new shop and are trying to get wireless throughout the whole thing. However the situation is unique.
The internet connection is actually a large area wireless connection. It is provided by DTN. Basically we have a dish type of thing on top the shop that picks up internet from a transmitter about 3 miles away. There is a large cable that goes from the dish into a Cisco 350 Wireless card in the computer.
[URL]
We are given a static IP address from the company which is in the 10.1.x.x range. What my original plan was to use ICS to share the DTN connection to a wireless router that is connected to the LAN port of the host computer. However ICS only works for the 192.168.0.1 ip address. We have to use the 10.1.x.x IP that we were given, that cannot be change. So because of this ICS does not seem like it will not work, unless there is a 3rd party tool that can used.
Also anytime that I enable the LAN port on the computer now that the router is plugged in, the internet drops off. it looks like the computer is defaulting to the LAN connection instead of teh DTN connection (which shows up as a wireless connection to XP). Is there anyway to stop this from happening?
Other notes: Computer: It is a Core2Duo running windows XP Pro.
Also are there any routers that can be purchased that can use a wireless connection input for the LAN connection?

Going to a hotel where they'll charge me (a lot) for WiFi in the room, for only 1 device. Will the TL-WR702N let me share this 1-device internet connection among several devices?

I recently purchased an E3200 and have successfully setup a USB printer from my desktop machine. However, I can't seem to figure out how to access that same printer through my laptop. The laptop is able to connect to the internet and the appropriate printer drivers were previously loaded.

having a problem with my Linksys wireless adapter: the light will flash a few times when I plug it in, then it will turn off. It won't let me connect to the internet or my printer.It's not the port: it is recognized when I put it in any other port, but it still won't connect. I think it's a virus, but my antivirus software isn't showing anything when I run a full scan (I use Malwarebytes Free). I'm gonna put AVG on a flash drive from another computer and try to use that later today, but right now I've been thinking that I might have to back everything up and reinstall windows.
-Windows Vista- Home Premium
-Linksys Wireless USB Network Adapter (I think it's WUSB600N, not sure though)
-Malwarebytes Free Anti-virus
-Netgear Router (I think it's WGR614L)

I have a Maxtor 160Gb external HDD and want to use it as a network drive.So I go to the routers login page and choose for storage to set it up. I did this once and because I wanted to change a few things I deleted the share and changed the users and usergroup that I've made.Now I can't created a share anymore, also tried another disk(flashdrive) nothing seems to work.The only thing I didn't do is reset to factory default, but that's the last thing I want to do.I use the E3000 router with firmware 1.0.04

I replaced a WRT54G with an E2500. The wired PC is running XP SP3, the wireless PCs are (1) Win 7 and (1) XP SP3. Print sharing works fine, but all file shares on the "host" PC are failing. I ran "net share" and turned off all shared directories on the "host" and the same on the wireless PCs, then rebooted all. The Win7 PC sees the single directory I set up to share, but when I try to open it, I get a message that the directory is inaccessible (possibly because of permissions) and that "There is not enough server storage available to process the command".Wireless XP PC gives the same error, but can access the printer, and sees the directory share on the "host".
