OK, I have three computers, for these purposes A,B and C.A has a usb dsl modem and connects to the internet and has a wired lan to B and shares internet connection. B and C have Wlan cards but A doesnt. I have no router. Is there any way for all three to access the internet at the same time without buying any other products? Or simply can you let C (with an Ad-hoc network) connect through B to the internet in A??? I am running Windows XP home on all of them.
Thanks!!
Chris

If 2 of your computers have 2 network connections yes. You can enable ICS on both of these and create 2 private networks for teh purpose of sharing the connection. However, this is a very bad solution considering for the last computer in the chain to have internet access you would have to have all 3 on. I highly recomend you buy a router. They are about $60 US and are usually pretty easy to configure.
