Internet sharing via WiFi networking

I just installed zyxel B220/built-in AP, wifi usb adaptor on my desktop for for wifi networking to my wifi enabled laptop. Everything works fine except I cannot share the LAN internet.

My internet provider gives me the connection via LAN using a network card, when I start sharing, the network breaks down for some reason.

Can we do internet sharing this way or not, my usb adaptor does have a inbuilt access point too, but I dont know how to use it as of now.

I read the page you linked, I don't see where it says your B220 is also an access point.

How about somemore info about your internet provider? Is it wireless cellular? cable? dsl? satellite? an ethernet wire coming out of the wall?

on this page read onthe description of B220, it mention the model as with /AP, the dealer whome I bought also told me the same & the software I got does have "Aegis client" software for making it an access point, but I dont know how to use it, I am quite new to networking itself so WiFi is too high for me to realy understand hence the question asked here.

On this page it does mention G220/AP & mentions that it has in built AP, may be the dealer gave me the wrong info , will call him to confirm & upgrade to the G type as that will be the future technology.

My internet provider is a cable guy who connects different computer with local LAN network spreading in around 1000 connection. I have a LAN card installed by him on my computer for he give me a unique IP.
