My laptop's wifi interface is dead. I cannot connect wirelessly anymore. The router is in the other room, so it's a bit annoying.
Luckily my netbook is still getting wifi. Is there a way to share the connection between the two, most probably by setting up a (wired) LAN ?
I know Ubuntu's Network Manager has a 'Shared connection' option, but I guess I am using it wrong because it's not working. Plus I hate using these GUI applets that do the work for you. I am looking to learn how to make this work.
So if any of you could give me a solution or at least point me to a useful tutorial, it would be great.
Thanks.
PS Do I need to specify that I do not use Windows, so it is useless to point me to the 'Control Panel' ot whatever you call it these days ?

Im sure it can be done. I dont know bout linux gui though, but if you want to do it the command-line way you have to use iptables.
Something like
iptable -t nat -A ......
Take a look at the manpage maybe
