Take the 2-minute tour ×  On my linux computer I have an
external wlan adapter which is connected wirelessly to internet
(an access point). Now I want to connect my linux computer via
ethernet cable to a new ddwrt router. This ddwrt router should
now "get" internet from my linux computer, so that my linux
computer is acting like a internet sharing box.  INTERNET <-
over wlan (wlan0) -> LINUX COMPUTER <- ethernet eth0 -> DDWRT
Router  Anyone should now be able to connect wirelessly to the
ddwrt router to get internet. How should I configure my linux
computer to make it work? Thanks!  share|improve this question
Is the wlan0 a static or dynamic IP? –  slm Dec 26 '12 at 20:20
add comment  1 Answer  If I understand what you're afer, you
want the following:  You <-> Home systems <-> DDWRT Router <->
Linux Box <-> Internet  If so then you'll need to do a couple of
things on your Linux laptop. Depending on what distro you're
using the steps will be slightly different. My steps are for a
Fedora Redhat distro.  % vim
