Wireless internet connectoin sharing w/router problem

[hanzul233]

Heres my setup:


I have broadband cable going into a wireless router (netgear mr314) which is cat5 wired to 2 pcs. I have 2 more pcs upstairs, one of which has a usb wireless adapter and a 2nd nic. The other pc has a regular nic. These 2 pcs are connected by a crossover cable.

I tried enabling internet connection sharing on the 1st pc with the usb wireless adapter, enabling sharing on the pci nic (linksys 100tx). But when i try, it says that theres an ip conflict with another device on the lan. I'm assuming its trying to assign it 192.168.0.1, but thats the routers internal ip.

This is about as far as i got and have no idea where to go to now. The 2 pc's that are connected togheter via crossover can see each others shared folders, but cannot get any internet connections (internet explorer, aim, icq).

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Welcome to AnandTech Network Forum.

It will not work since you are trying to install a double local Routing.

The you should equip the second computer with a Wireless Client.

Or get an Access Point that can be configured as a Client for the upstairs, plug it to a Switch, and connect the two computers to the switch.

When you use ICS Windows automatically uses the 192.168.0.1 address on the LAN NIC. Change the router's internal IP to resolve the conflict.
