Hi,
I've seen two GUI apps that use the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter
and one command file, all of which build a WiFi LAN through Internet
Connection Sharing. ICS is not all that desirable because it creates a new
subnet. A more useful approach would use network bridging and put every
device on the same subnet.
What I propose is not accomplished easily, in my experience. I use network
bridging and static IP assignments for Ethernet but I do not know how to do
it with the MS Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter. Can this be done? Has it been
documented?
Cheers
