HI
From what I have read I understood it is possible to share internet (I have fiber and have a wired ethernet network NOT a wireless one) in Leopard using a wireless card.
I bought a D-Link Wireless G USB adapter DWL - G122. I installed it in my G5 desktop computer since I do NOT have an airport card in it- I am running Leopard. We have a laptop ibook G4 that does have an airport card but has a broken ethernet card, so I thought I could hook up so that I could share my internet connection via the wireless USB adapter.
I have done a lot of searches and attempts, but am getting nowhere. In the setup section for networking and sharing on the G5 I never get up airport as a selection, just the USB adapter, and am unable to connect from the iBook.
Any advice?
thanks!
