This is my problem: I currently a wired internal network with a (simple) harware router/firewall/switch, wich is connected to Internet. I have one server (win2000), two stationary workstations(winXP) and one stationary (immobile) laptop (win95) connected to the LAN. I have just bought a second laptop (win2000) and two Ornico WLAN PC-cards. Now I would like to connect my new laptop to this already set up LAN. I have thougth that I would use the PCMCIA-slot on my old (immobile) laptop for one WLAN-card, and the otherone in my new laptop (of course). I have connected the WLAN-cards and got them properly working on both laptops, have also got them connected Ad Hoc with each other using the test-program that came with the cards. My question is: How do I get the new Laptop to utilize the old wired LAN through my old laptop? I want to be able to connect to internet, use windows-sharing and use network printing. What software do I need to run on my old Laptop to make this happen? What settings do I have to make? Thankful for answer. /Broma

Problem is that there comes no ICS with win95(osr2). I will have to use some other third-pary software. I would of course be able to bridge the LAN's quite simply if I ran winXP but... I'm not. So.. how do i bridge theese LAN's using a software that runs under w95?

Seems like you are trying to make this as hard as possible on yourself. Why not return one pcmcia card, and get a USB card for the Win2K, or XP boxes where ICS is supported, or get a wireless access point to plug directly into the net.

Well... if it was that simpe. The problem is - no money availible! The two WLAN cards I have was sold to me cheaply second-hand. (so I can't return them) And, beeing a computer-scientist student I see it as a challange.
