Infiltrator Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 The idea behind would be, let say you don't have a wireless access point but you have a computer with a wired and wireless interface card. You could bridge the two interfaces together and share your normal internet connection via your wireless card to any other wireless device you have on your network.

abferm Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 (edited) Sounds like a good idea. Is it possible? Does anyone know how to do it on Linux? Edited July 6, 2011 by abferm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abferm Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Did a little research. The instructions for Windows Vista are here. All versions of Windows should have the option, but it may be in a different place. After connecting to the wireless network you should be able to bridge the networks or share your internet connection to the wireless network. The instructions for forming the direct wireless connection in Ubuntu can be found here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
