742947 2009-01-29 06:57:00 Hi techno guys. I've asked this before but was too busy to follow it up. Has anyone setup a gateway PC before. I have a spare PC with 2 NICs and running XP. I want to setup a gateway PC to allow bandwidth management. Here is a what I want

Telecom Thompson wireless modem/router
|
Gateway PC (On 1 NIC)
|
Dlink wireless router (No WAN support and turned DHCP off)
|
all other PCs

On the gateway PC I have 2 IPs. one is 192.168.0.88 and 192.168.1.254.

Anyone know what else I need to do to get the gateway pc and all other pcs to the internet and have the gateway pc running a control bandwidth software.

Thanks.

742948 2009-01-29 08:30:00 What bandwidth controlling software do you plan to use? I am not sure whether "gateway PC" needs to be specially set up. At home, my laptop is connected via Ad Hoc to another laptop and the home computer. My Asus laptop is then connected to the Internet via dial-up. In order to share the Internet connection, all I need to do is to direct the other laptop and the home computer to seek out my laptop's connection by entering my laptop's IP address into the "Default Gateway" (TCP/IP option, under properties of NIC).

Cheers :)
