    Red face Creating a Wireless Accespoint

    Hello everyone!
    Im trying to set up a laptop that will take a GPRS modem set up under ppp0 and act as a wireless access point on wlan0.
    Basically
    GPRS Modem -> Laptop (w/ DHCP Server) -> Wireless card (In Master Mode)-> Wireless Clients

    I need help setting up a DHCP server and bridging the two connections. I already have both connections set up and I can connect to sites from the laptop through PPP0 but any clients connecting cant ping or see anything.
    Thanks for any help you can give,

    you would have to club these two tutorials for this to work
    1)ICS - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370
    2)laptop as AP - http://prash-babu.blogspot.com/2008/...etwork-in.html
    remember with laptop as AP only one pc can access the laptop's connection via wlan0 at a time.. you would be setting up a adhoc wifi network
