I have a Sagem USB ADSL modem plugged into my laptop which provides my internet connection. I have also been given a Buffalo AirStation WHR-G54S wireless router/4-port switch which unfortunately does not have an ADSL socket to plug in the phone cable that currently goes into my USB modem.
My question is, can I share my net connection to other computers by connecting the AirStation with an ethernet cable to the LAN port of my laptop and then connecting the other computers with ethernet cables to the remaining ports on the back of the AirStation? What settings would I need to make?
This image shows the back of the AirStation to give you an idea of the sockets available (clearly all ethernet cable sockets) : http://news.sosol.com.cn/news/html/xhtml/NewsImages/20070202/20070202153145662.jpg
Many thanks.
