Sharing Internet Access
This section describes the procedures to share Internet Access.
To share Internet Access, you first have to set a sharing server and a sharing client.
When the setup is complete, you can access the Internet from the sharing client by
connecting to the sharing server.
Sharing Server
: A computer with a direct connection to the internet and a
local network connection.
Sharing
Client
: A computer that uses the Internet by connecting to a sharing
server without itself having a direct connection to the Internet.
You can connect a sharing server and a sharing client as follows.(See Figure

For Connection 3, you have to connect a LAN card in advance.
To connect a sharing server and a sharing client using a wired LAN, connect
the computers with a crossover LAN cable or network hub first.
To use a wireless LAN, slide the Wireless LAN Latch into the ON position, if
the wireless LAN is turned off.
When the wireless LAN is turned on, the Wireless LAN Operation LED (

lights up.
