Okay it's easy to do this; you have to bridge your city internet connection over to your router if you have the router hooked up to the computer then you do the following things. Oh and the bridge connection will only work on a windows XP or higher (includeing VISTA)
1. go to the NETWORK CONNECTIONS (Control panel> Network and Internet> NETWORK CONECTIONS)
2. Highlight the connection that is the one that is recieving the city internet connection push and hold shift; then click on the connection that is going to the router; release the shft key. (they should both be highlighted)
3. Right click one of them (it doesn't matter which one) then click BRIDGE CONNECTIONS, then follow the step your computer prompts you to do.
I promise this will work as long as you do it with a Windows based computer.

You guys don't get it, those of us asking DO NOT HAVE A CABLE MODEM OR ROUTER INCOMING WE ARE PICKING UP WIRLESS SIGNALS THROUGH OUR WLAN or usb aircard. we need to take the signal from those devices and output to our wireless routers through our LAN output. reading most of these posts most of you have missed the question. how to convert an already wireless signal and take it through your desktop and re broadcast the same signal through your own wireless router

Try to configure your Ip manually
Go to your network places
Then right click on the wireless device
Click on properties
Click on Internet Protocol (tcp /Ip )
Then set up manually the ip
And put your router id as gateway .
it Should work
If there is any iP conflict it is because two post are using same ip
To check the ip go to Start
Run
Type Cmd
A dos window will appear
then Type Ipconfig
You will have the actual Ip of the Pc

alright, for all the people going crazy trying to figure this out...its actually quite simple once you've done it a first time. the information that i got was from this url: http://www.ehow.com/how_2268792_computers-wireless-internet-connection-xp.html the main thing you will need to have is a crossover cable, for anyone that doesnt have one, id recommend learning how to make one, considering how much cheaper it is to create one, to how much it is to buy one (to make- less than 10 dollars....to buy- can be up to 60 dollars...do the math) for anyone that needs help with this, email me at nolanlm09@yahoo.com
Didn't find the answer you are looking for?
Ask a question
I am not connecting through the router though. I am connecting my desktop to the internet through another wireless connection and connecting my wireless router through my desktop.
Hi there i have a wireless router on my desktop but my laptop wifi connection i cannot access to the internet. But i have connection on my wirless when i open IE the page cannot be displayed
any luck yet i have the same issue thought it would be simple.
surly there is a way to go from wlan thru the desktop out the lan to the wireless router for distribution of the internet signal.

I think you are just making things hard on yourself. Hardware is cheap and time is expensive.
I would get a wireless router (which I have), then connect to the wireless router with your other devices, up to four, and directly connect your desktop to the router. A wireless router will take 4 direct wire connections which can be expanded and almost an infinite number of wireless devices. You can probably get an 801g free somewhere.

Your having IP conflicts because DHCP must not be working. DHCP automatically recycles and reassigns IP addresses. Make sure DHCP is 'ON' in the router settings, and also for both PC's under the ethernet card properties. Turn PC's off, reboot router, turn PC's back on, and fire up the router. Everything should work fine at that point. What kind of router are you using? Most home-based routers have built in switch ports, meaning you only need straight-through ethernet cat5+
PLEASE HELP! I'm trying to do this exact thing, and I cant really tell what you all did to get this to work.
In my case:
I am receiving internet to my laptop from my at&t 3g wireless device. (So I have no MODEM that could provide a connection to a WiFi router)
However, I must have a Wifi Router, as my PS3 and Apple TV require it for internet access. Direct Ethernet from these devices to the laptop is not possible or feasible.
So...I must get a Wifi Router internet access from my Laptop some how. Obviously by the ethernet port on my laptop.
Now, How to do it. What kind of ethernet port cable. CAT5 or Crossover. I am running Vista, what do I need to do in my networking settings. I am clueless on this part.
I greatly appreciate any help or advice or even a suggestion.
Thank You
James

first set your router to be a wireless bridge you will need to get the mac address of the signal your connecting to now you can receve the signal to your router and rebroadcast it at the same time and there will be 4 ports coming from the router that you could also connect to wired if you so desired, if you have a wireless router there is no reason to burden your pc with such a task
hey need help in inding my wireless connection for my playstation 3 through broadband and virgin and a netgear router
I have excellent connection to internet but it won't get IP address. I got it to work for like 1 second but I don't know how. HELP.
Are you all trying to use ur signal from your laptop to power up ur router signal? if so can u do that and attach it to say an xbox for live?
you need to translate my words...........para compartir el internet de tu computadora de escritorio con tu laptop o otras computadoras por medio de wifi es simple.
vas a ocupas dos routers para hacer la conexion sin ninguna dificultad.
1 el primer router switch lo vas a conectar a la tarjeta de red de tu computadora una vez encendido y conectado despues vas a entrar a tu Local Area Connection dar click en Propierties despues Advanced utilizar Network Set up Wizard seleccionar la opcion This computer connects directly to the internet y despues seleccionar Wireless Network Connection despues Local Area Connection sigue llenar datos de nombre de la computdora y seguido por el nombre de la conexion, despues seleccionamos Turn off file and printer sharing y por ultimo paso Just finish the wizard.
2 prendemos el routerque transmite senal wifi al router switch un cable va en donde dice internet y el otro en cualquiera de las entradas para compartir la red y listo ya hay internet para las demas computadoras creamos nuestra conexion repetidora de wifi
