Not quite sure where to post something so Windows relevant...
Alright, so here is the theorhetical setup:
My PowerBook G4 is connected to the internet through my university's T1 line, via Ethernet. I have an Airport card, too. I also have an old Windows 95 PC, and an old Farallon (2mbps?) Wireless card. So, theoretically, I should be able to connect the PC to the internet through the PowerBook's wireless connection like this...
WinPC w/Farallon Wi-Fi <--> PB G4 w/Airport--Ethernet <--> Ethernet to T1 line
So, I turn on "Internet Sharing" in the "Sharing" preference pane, and the Farallon card starts blinking on the PC, as if it's making a connection... And the Farallon softwares has a little indicator in the taskbar which turns Green and says "Linked"..... however, when I try to go to a web page in Windows Internet Explorer, it quickly replies that no connection could be found.... what am I configuring wrong?
