thanks for replying.

well basically nothing can be changed at the internet access provider's
side. its not even my own work place. im just there as a visitor on
assignment. which is why, i guess, everything is so restricted.

terms...

hi i have a seemingly rather special situation:

i have a laptop that has had its mac address registered to the company
wireless access point.
what i want to do, is to share out that internet connection using a
dlink 614+ to several other pcs and laptops equiped with wireless
network cards.

as of now i still havent been able to connected the Dlink up with my
ICS laptop without getting the 'Limited connectivity' warning.
...nor do i have any idea how to setup such a connection.
the ICS laptop already has Internet Connection Sharing activated on its
wirelesss connection with the company wireless AP.

any suggestions?

Thanks.

Is there a network administrator at your company? If so, ask that
person whether company policy allows additional wireless networking
devices. If it does, that person should be able to help you set
everything up.
