    Lets see if this helps.
    The computer that is doing the Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) must use
    the IP Address range 192.168.0.xxx for the Bluetooth adapter. The LAN it
    connects to must therefore NOT use anything in the 192.168.0.xxx IP space.
    So if you go into the AirStation and set it's DHCP server to use say
    192.168.1.xxx you should find that the system will work.
