here is my setup:

I have 2 computers hooked up to a linksys voip router (RTP 300/non wireless). One of these computers is equipped with a wireless network card.

I want to connect my PSP to the internet through the computer with the wireless adapter via Internet Connection Sharing (ICS).

Question #1

Is it possible to use ICS behind a router? If so, are there any additional steps needed to be able to do this instead of just the typical ICS setup?

Question #2

Can someone please advise how to connect my PSP to the internet through an adhoc network. Ive already done several searches on this and none of them has come up with a solution for me.


Thanks

I think the hard part here is not the ICS config on the computer, but rather getting the computer's WiFi adaptor to act as an access-point. Some can do it, most cannot. (They are wired up for client mode only.)

Why not just pick up a cheap Buffalo WiFi router, they are often $25-30 AR at CircuitCity.

I have an ENCORE ENLWI-G for my WiFi adapter. Any idea if this will work as an access point?
