Sharing Internet Via Router To Laptops
Aug 24, 2011
I'm having problems with my current network setup.I have four machines that need to be networked together (with the plan to add more in the future). One of these machines, the 'host', I want acting as the 'server' which holds all the shares etc.I have a security router which the 3 machines, and a printer are plugged into (via the lan ports). The host machine is also directly plugged in to this.That router hands out IP addresses to these machines using DHCP. The problem is that, I want the internet connection to be shared to these machines through the router, via an active wireless connection on the host computer.

Is there a way for me to connect my desktop PC to my laptop, & use the laptops EDGE/GPRS modem in the PCMIA slot of the laptop to access the Internet? I also have a wireless router that is not being used for anything, however, I use the laptop to get online, & I'd like to share that connection with my desktop at home.

What I want to do is set up file sharing on both of my laptops so that they can share files both ways between them. I have in total 6 computers on my home network, and would like to limit the access to both to just the ones I want. I got about halfway before I hit an issue. My Windows 7 Ultimate is sharing both of its drives to my XP Home laptop, while being password protected for access from the other computers on my network. My XP Home Laptop cannot be shared without all the computers on my network having access too

I have 2 laptops that won't connect to the internet through my wireless router. They will connect through the ethernet cable though. When I click on connect, it says "waiting for network" but then closes itself and says it cannot connect. I also have one laptop that will not connect for several minutes after it "wakes up" from sleep mode or is restarted. It shows (No internet access).

I have a belkin wireless router/modem running our home network. We connect using 3 android devices, a wii and wireless printer with no problems. However, when connecting using either a windows 7 or windows XP laptop the internet connection is lost after a couple of minutes. I can't work out the cause of the problem but resetting the router gives a couple of minutes of browsing before it goes again. I have tried using static IP addresses for the laptops but this hasn't worked, furthermore I have tried a winsch reset.

My Linksys router is connected to my desktop and modem and gets internet access but for some reason has stopped sending the wireless signal to other laptops in the house.

I have two laptops which connect to the router via wireless. This router is wired to the modem. I can connect each laptop to the router then make an internet connection. This works fine. But if one laptop is connected to the internet, then the other cannot. I have to disconnect the first laptop then reconnect with the second.
I have had this scenario working in the past and can't remember what I have to do to enable both laptops to use the internet connection at the same time.

I have a new Linksys E2000, I was unable to connect one of my laptops to the internet, so I decided to call support with the problem, after 45min and not results, find out that the E2000 do not support the Atheros AR 5007, they told me that I need to get a new driver for my adapter. Fine but Cisco doesn’t have a Driver update for this problem or how to fix it, or at least send you a link where to get the fix.

I recently had hinges problems with my laptop and that hasn't been fixed yet. idk if its irrelevant or not. but anyway the Internet on my laptop keeps disconnecting and reconnecting and then staying disconnected for a while and then reconnects with limited activity. then i disconnect from it and reconnect and it takes over. 20mins to really connect again. i don't know why this problem is only with my laptop so it isn't the router. the other laptop and the desktop work just fine.

I recently built a new desktop computer and installed it with Windows 7 since our old xp desktop had crashed. I am now trying to setup our wireless network similar to the way it was on the old xp desktop but cannot seem to figure out how to do it on windows. The basic setup would be:
verizon usb card (internet soure) ---> Desktop ---> ethernet cable to router ---> wirless access for laptops etc.
This was fairly easy on xp. All I had to do was enable ICS on the verizon card and then run the little network setup wizard on xp and boom the router was broadcasting internet.
Now unfortunately windows 7 doesn't have that little wizard and I simply cannot figure out how to create the same setup. I enabled ICS on the verizon card but can't seem to get internet access to the router after that.

Recently my modem/router broke and we had it replaced by our provider. Since it has been replaced we have been having problems with our connection.We have 1 desktop and 2 laptops the desktop is connected to the modem. When we have both laptops running we can browse online okay but if one of the laptops starts downloading something or even loading a video or big web page the other laptops connection will not work it. It says its still connected and finds no problems but no pages will load. I also have problems when I download anything. If I begin downloading then on the same laptop I can not even browse the web while I'm Downloading.

I live in an apartment and I am forced to only use the apartment's internet service to go online.There are two ways to access the apartments network; via ethernet port or wifi. Once im connected and try to browse, I will first be taken an http login page to enter my username and password.The problem with this is I can only use the username and password for one computer at a time. Trying to get my second laptop to access the web using the same user and password will give me an error saying it is currently being used. As I have two laptops (work and personal), I would like to share the internet connection using a device that will allow either or both machines to connect simutaneously. What device will I need? A router, modem/router, access point, etc? And what configurations should I try?

My problem seems to be with the two laptops with Centrino wireless adapters. My daughter has a Dell with Centrino and was complaining that her wireless keeps dropping out and the other 3 laptops in the house had no problems, I bought a new Samsung laptop the other day and my wireless keeps dropping out on it as well. I looked at all the settings and stuff in the posts I found and noticed that I have a Centrino with advanced N6325 and remembered that my daughters dell also has a Centrino wireless, this is the only similarities that I noticed and can find no reason why I am loosing internet.

Recently, my desktop will not connect to the internet but all the other laptops in the house can connect to the internet wirelessly. The desktop is hard wired to the dlink router and worked fine up until about last week. How to check if its a virus, bad networking card or maybe something else?

So I'm trying to set up my computer to act as a virtual router so I can connect another device to the network.I can successfully create the network but it doesn't seem to be sharing my internet. I believe the problem may be that on the sharing tab for the initial internet connection there is no drop down menu like the one below.

So here's my setup:Computer A is connected directly to a cable modem box via USB. Computer B (which is sometimes a laptop and sometimes a desktop) is connected to Computer A and shares its internet connection via Ethernet because I am too cheap to buy a router.A few days ago we borrowed a Belkin wireless router so we could have both desktops, the laptop, and my fiance's iPod Touch access the internet at the same time. That worked fine but once we returned the router and tried to put everything back to normal, it didn't work. The only computer able to access the internet is Computer A (or whichever one is directly connected).I tried resetting the modem and restarting both machines. I tried disabling all of the connections that showed up from using the router.Windows states that the IP isn't properly configured or something of that nature. I tried setting it to automatically set the IP but to no avail.Here is the part that really confuses me - I can access Computer B from Computer A via LAN using the ethernet cable, so the connection between the two computers is fine.

We have highspeed internet that comes in at our house, but we want internet in our shop. We have a wireless dongle outside of the building and it picks up the signal for the main computer from the main wireless router. Because it is a metal building we cannot get a wireless signal inside the building otherwise. I want to hook a wireless router up to the computer in the shop, share the internet connection, and broadcast the signal throughout the shop so I can use wireless in the shop.

My ISP provides static ip based internet connection. I have setup my D-link DWR-113 router to access internet through it. I have also turned on DHCP in the router. But when I try to access internet using both of my computers simultaneously it doesn't work - none of the computers is able to load a webpage. And when I leave one computer I am able to surf without any problem.

I took the router out of the mix, and now only the linux laptops can connect to the internet via ethernet cable. comcast support is useless.any ideas what could be happening here? Only 1 of the linux and 2 of the windows laptops were connected at the time this occurred.

I have 3 computers running Windows-7. One computer is directly attached with wired connection to broadband internet modem and other 2 computers are attached through a Wireless router attached to modem. The problem is this that both wireless computers are running internet well while the directly connected computer shows internet connection but no data flow happens. When the Wireless router is turned off the directly connected computer starts working internet.
