Re: Sharing connection

["Antonio Bulgheroni" <antonio bulgheroni roma3 infn it>]

This is exactly what I meant. I'm pretty sure that my wifi card (ipw2200) supports this MASTER modality and that configuring everything ad-hoc by hands can help, but I'm not in hurry... and I prefer to wait a nice script doing everything for me in a safe way. 

Thanks again

Antonio

It would be even better if it was possible to set up a simple AP
on the wifi card to share the internet. It shouldn't
introduce a lot of code, most of the things (bridging) will
be/are done anyway as a part of connection sharing feature.
There would only be a need to change the mode of the card into master.
(like we do it now with iwconfig). Unfortunately not all the drivers
support mode changing this way, although let's hope it will
change in the future as the drivers will be ported to the unified
mac80211 stack.
