General :: Sharing A Modem INTERNET On LAN
Mar 11, 2010
My computer is already connected to a 100Mbps LAN. I can use wvdial to connect to internet using a modem when I have my LAN disconnected. Now, I want to share this modem internet to one of the IP addresses available on LAN. Say 10.100.99.56 for example.

I have a sprint usb 3g modem that plugs in via usb. I want to be able to share that Internet though an Ethernet port so I can connect another PC or my playstation so I can steam movies or just use the INTERNET on another puter. Iv tried lots of stuff I found on Internet like firestarter for one but it doesn't want to set up right.

I use Opensuse 11.2 & Edge/Gprs Modem to connect Internet.I configured /etc/wvdial.conf & /etc/resolv.conf. Now I can connect Internet using this command "wvdial MYNET" in terminal.Now I want to share my internet using Lan card & Netgear Router. If i connect my PC with Router using wire & change option ON BOOT find this device in ifup then it'll show in ifconfig command.
My Router IP : 192.168.0.1 & It gives my PC an IP automatically : 192.168.0.2
I can ping my router.. even I can browse Router Admin page in browser. No problem there.But now If i want to connect my net using wvdial command... net connected... but no data passing!!! If i disable Lan card in ifup then Edge/Gprs net connection again OK!

I am wanting a computer with an external dialup modem (ppp0 modem through a com port /dev/ttys1) to act as a gateway to the internet, forwarding internet traffic through ethernet (eth0 is set to static 192.168.2.2) to a router (the router is 192.168.2.1) where it will be broadcast to other wireless computers like my laptop (192.168.2.3). I've had this setup until recently when the gateway computer (the one with the modem) died. Now I'm replacing that machine with another box and an install of Ubuntu 10.10 but so far things aren't working for me.
Success so far:I have dialup access working on the new box. Took me a while to work out the configuration for getting dialup working, though the IP address is Dynamic (or it won't stay connected), "Check carrier line" is off, and "Ignore Terminal Strings (stupid mode)" is on in order to successfully connect and stay connected to my ISP. I also had to make my normal (non-root) user "lancer" a member of the "pid" group (the reboot) in order to use gnome-ppp as non-root. The laptop (192.168.2.3) is successfully connecting to the router (192.168.2.1) as I can see the router configuration page when I type http://192.168.2.1 into the laptop's web browser. This setup is unchanged from how I had it before when this was previously working and I don't want to change how the router itself is set up. What I want is to know what to fix in the new box in order to get it connected to the router (through ethernet) and bridging the internet through.
My problem is that whenever I plug in the eth0 from the gateway (192.168.2.2) to the router (192.168.2.1), Ubuntu's automatic plug-me-in network detection kicks in and I find my dialup no longer working through some kind of IP conflict (at least that's what I think it is). Maybe I don't have the "gateway" correctly assigned? (in the gateway computer for the ethernet connection, I had it pointing to itself as I don't know what to put for "gateway IP" as that is automatic So, just to check my connection, here I am pinging google (from the gateway computer which has the dialup modem) once a dialup connection has been made.
Code:
lancer@lancer-desktop:~$ ping www.google.com
PING www.l.google.com (74.125.237.17) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 74.125.237.17: icmp_req=1 ttl=55 time=179 ms
64 bytes from 74.125.237.17: icmp_req=2 ttl=55 time=176 ms
64 bytes from 74.125.237.17: icmp_req=3 ttl=55 time=158 ms
[Code]...
What do I need to do in order to make Ubuntu of my gateway computer stay connected to my dialup but also simultaneously share an ethernet LAN to my wireless router and feed traffic to the other computers from there? I have googled this but some of the most promising instruction (e.g. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-in...in-ubuntu.html) call for packages like dnsmasq or ipmasq which seem defunct now in Ubuntu 10.10. Other pages seem to suggest dual-networks "can't be done" in Ubuntu [URL].. (what!?! I had it before my other gateway died)

Currently my job is to make websites with Django. I use many things like virtualenv, PIL, etc. The problem is, I can't stand Linux on my desktop. I like it on servers, It's greate to use it over the SSH. But for desktop? No way. But for the development Linux is quite essential. Of course almost everything is ported to Windows, but it's not as simple to use as in Linux. For example, Windows shell is awful in comparison with Linux. So I've tried Cygwin, but it's too damn slow. Every time django dev server reloads, it tooks almost 20-30 seconds. In comparison, then using "native" python on Windows or Linux, it reloads instantly. Even worse, Cygwin makes all my system very slow.
I've been thinking about it and have thought up a way to go. I can share a folder with my application with some Linux box. The devserver and everything will run on that box, while I'll be happy editing files and running the browser on my Windows 7. SSH shell is much quickier and handy than Cygwin. Currently there are no Linux boxes in my home network (except for my android phone :) but I have several VDS boxes with Debian.
So, how do I share a Windows folder with VDS box? I can't rely on my desktop IP but I can rely on the VDS's one. I need sharing to be as quick as possible (well, 2-3 seconds ping is OK) and "native" for both systems, so I could use a folder like a normal folder in both Windows and Linux.

I am totally new to Linux. I was not able to connect to internet using the default network manager in Ubuntu, so I set up the internet connection using "sudo pppoeconf" and it works great. I want to share this internet connection with another PC which runs Windows XP. Please, can anybody give me step by step instructions about how to do that? (instructions for configuring both Ubuntu and windows machine, A GUI will be very helpful) Both my Ubuntu machine and windows PC have static IP. And I dont want anyone to use this internet connection except the windows PC.

Can I connect my Linux PC to the Internet with a Nokia E71? I've looked for answers elsewhere but everything I've found refers to file synchronization, sending SMSs, playing with the address book, etc. I just want the Internet!

I have installed the 3 packages required for MTS Mblaze 3G Modem to get connected to the internet.
Quote:
1. usb_modeswitch
2. usb_modeswitch-data
3. wvdial
Here is the "/etc/wvdial.conf" file that gets generated when I do the "wvdialconf"
Code:
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Stupid Mode = yes
[code]...
But now when I open Mozilla or Google Chrome Internet Browsers, I am not able to connect. Moreover, I also tried to ping to [URL] but it is not pinging.Is it related to some Network Manager settings. As when I look at the Network Connection Icon, it shows CROSS i.e. not connected to any network...

For my broadband Internet I have several computers connected by cable to a Netgear DG834Gv5 router which has its own firewall.I have the wireless turned off by choice.My desktop and laptop are Linux only. (Ubuntu lucid lynx) I use the same username and password (very strong password) on both.What I want to know is can I set things up so I can browse and copy files between the computers using say nautilus on either computer?if not nautilus then I would happy to be able to do the same via a terminal window.I am not necessarily wanting to be told how but either what to Google for or where to find it.

I would like to have all traffic from the ethernet connection out through the wireless (basically using the box as a router) however I am having some trouble doing this.
I have done this before on Windows however I am having some trouble doing this on linux, I have tried using Squid Proxy however I am having some trouble using configuring/using it.
I am using Yellow Dog Linux however I am willing to change to any other distro as long as it is compatable with PS3 (as this is what im using linux on)

Been trying for a couple days know to get my laptop to work with my 360 so I can use the internet connection from it so I can go online. I access the internet using my Nokia E72(ppp0) and I intend to use the laptop's ethernet port for the 360(eth0).
Tried this out [url] and a bunch of other guides which I can not find right now. Running Debian Testing and have no idea what to do next.

for the last one week i'm facing problem in sharing internet between xp and fedora. I'm connected to internet through wireless adapter in xp and wants to share internet through crossover cable between xp and fedora. I did the following steps.
1: start a network setup wizard in xp.
2: change the smb.conf file in fedora and change the workgroup name to same as in xp.
3:in Xp the ethernet adapter has address 192.168.0.1/24.
4: when i connect the crossover cable and start fedora. it couldn't get the ip address through dhcp.
5: when i tried giving the ip address manually "192.168.0.2/24 with gateway 192.168.0.1"and save the subnet mask is replaced by 192.168.0.1 don't know why it not saved.
i tried changing new ethernet card but not worked. some time avc denials message "SELinux is preventing consoletype (consoletype_t) "read" to /var/lib/dhclient/dhclient-eth0.leases (dhcpc_state_t)." comes. can any one tell me how to enable or make a network in fedora . i 'm very new in linux and couldn't able to share network .

I am using a much older desktop as a Ubuntu desktop running 10.4. I use internet sharing from my iBook G4. I haven't changed anything from yesterday, when it worked perfectly, but now it can't find any server, whether it be internet or IRC. I've tried different ethernet cords, restarting both computers, etc, but to no avail.

a friend of mine who is currently living in a different country has just installed ubuntu on her computer and I am having a very frustrating time finding coherent/useful information about how to set up a remote desktop connection with her over the internet with. Right now I'm trying to set up a remote server on MY computer so that I know the process and can tell her what to do. Particularly annoying is the erratic behaviour of Ubuntu's default remote desktop function. The results are erratic, sometimes instructing me to connect to localhost, other times to my IP address, and usually informing me that I can only connect to this computer over the local network. At one point this summer i actually succeeded in getting a friend to connect over the internet to it, but that has not happened again. Why is it doing this?
I get the impression that VNC is the best method for connecting remote desktops, but I haven't had any luck with that either. I assume I must be doing something wrong setting the servers up: i just run vncpasswd to set the password and then vncserver. What else do I need to do? I couldn't find any simple or clear tutorials. Some places seemed to suggest I would have to configure the router if I have one (which I do), but I didn't have to do that in the summer. Although, it was a different router then.Do you need more information on anything? I can't think of anything right now, I'm very tired. If you can point me to any helpful tutorials then that would be great. I have a decent amount of experience with the command line in general, but I'm not very knowledgeable about networks.

I'm trying to use my bluetooth connection on Opensuse 11.4 to share its internet access with my Windows 7 laptop.I've been able to link them together(send receive files) but cannot create an Adhoc network or share internet with the link.What should I try? Could someone point me into the right direction?I looked at one promising tread that looked as if it would work but cant find hcid.conf(did a complete file search and think it may have been changed in bluez).

I have a non-profit company. Currently we are using Dropbox to store and share files. We have the free 2 gig account and we are quickly running out of space. Naturally, we don't have a lot of money so I'm looking for a cheap alternative. I thought I might be able to set up a linux server in my home (with a back-up drive) do to the same thing. I want my board members and staff to be able to access these files from their homes or jobs and to be able to manipulate the files on the server. I'd like to be able to control access levels so that I can limit access to certain files and folders. I have a tech background but none of the others do so FTP is not really an option. It needs to be as simple as if they were looking at a file on their pc. Is this possible or am I totally dreaming here?
Right now I'm using Ubuntu but I just downloaded Fedora 15 and plan to play around with that a bit. The pc's I have are P4 2.6 with 1G RAM.
