Re: Complicated LAN



Hello,

Tokenhost a écrit :

There is a wireless router downstairs which is working fine. One
high-spec desktop of mine running windows xp is connected to that
router. [...]

I have three other low-spec desktops running various flavours of linux
I want connected together (I have an ethernet hub, cable, ETC) but also
able to access the internet through the router without wireless cards
in each.

A simple solution would be to bridge the ethernet and wireless interfaces together on the Windows XP desktop and connecting the ethernet interface to the hub.
.
