ICS And Wireless

[lostincable]

Hi all, I have had to move my unraid box and a windows machine from my office whilst it is renovated.

 

There is no way I can get ethernet cables into the room I have both these boxes in now and it is only temporary.

 

With the windows box I have a wireless dongle which is picking up internet wirelessely obviously the unraid box can not accept a wireless dongle as it doesn't have the drivers for it.

 

What I wanted to know if there is a way to connect my Unraid box to the windows box via ethernet and use Internet Connection Sharing to give the unraid box internet access and if so what ip's etc would need to be assigned to do this?

 

To summarise -

 

PC 1 -

 

Windows 7

Wireless dongle providing internet connection

Ethernet port connected to the unraid machine

 

PC 2 -

 

Unraid Server

Ethernet cable connected to the windows machine

 

Any help appreciated....

That will work if the server is set to use DHCP.
