I am trying Ubuntu on a trial basis to see if I think I could use it in place of Windows. One of the things I can do in Windows is connect my XP laptop thru a wireless access point which is connected by ethernet cable to my desktop, which is set to share its internet connection. The desktop connects to the internet by dialup.
I have my desktop pc with a wired/ LAN connection to a Belkin wireless router.
We also have a couple of laptops in the house which connect to the same router, but wirelessly.
Is there anyway I can create a network for file transfer and desktop sharing between these computers
whilst the desktop pc is connected via LAN cable? All machines are running Ubuntu 12.04.
Laptop gets the Internet through wifi. I'm trying to plug a router to the laptop to create a new wifi network. Laptop would bridge.

I am able to connect to the router(a 2wire AT&T wireless gateway) with my UNR 10.10 Lenovo ideapad S10-3t both wired and wirelessly. I tried connecting manually to the router on my desktop using the eth0 connection but it still says "You are now offline" after a few seconds.
Hi everyone
I have a laptop running ubuntu with a wireless internet connection and ip masquerading through the ethernet port, and a desktop running debian which connects to the internet through the laptop.
Its been working well, and have been able to ssh to the desktop from the laptop, but recently it has stopped working.

I want to use my desktop with a wired ethernet connection (eth0) to operate my USB Wifi Adapter (wlan0) as a non-adhoc access point (so my android can connect to it).

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
auto br0
iface br0 i
