So you want to share a connection with a WAP, and then access the WAP from another computer? You should be able to share a crossover cable to the WAN port of a WAP, and use that to do what you need. I am unsure if there is a way to share the connection wirelessly to a WAP though.

| Re: internet sharing with a USB modem possible? Can you provide a link to your modem specifications? I'm curious to know if the modem only has a USB port. I'm sure we can help you get it up and running! Vince

| Re: internet sharing with a USB modem possible? I'm assuming he is using a cell phone to tether.. In his sig, he refers to a TyTn 2... A cell phone.. I have a PPC6800 aka Titan. I can tether it to a laptop for internet. I know for a fact you can use ICS to share that connection depending on how you have it tethered. I guess you can use it to connect to a WAN port of a WAP and share that connection.
