I have many Network devices. With a cable modem and wireless router in the bedroom.
In the bedroom i also have
-Ps2
-Xbox

The ps2 and Xbox are wired connected to wireless router.
In the office i have a PC with 2 nics, one Wireless. and a Mac with NO wireless nic.
I also have a laptop with builtin wireless.

How can i use Internet Connection sharing to connect the mac to the PC's 2nd eth port and go through the wireless to get the web. Is this possible. Of course using DHCP it tells me the address needed for ICS is already in use.
What would the easiest/cheapest solution be. Buy a usb 54g nic for mac?. I dont want to run a long wire across my house.

Bridge the two NICs and give everything a static IP in the same subnet.
