Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My TR is on a ethernet network which provides the internet. I want to share the internet from that network via an adhoc connection from the TR’s WIFI to a G4 Powerbook.

I have setup a static ip address and subnet mask for both the Powerbook and the TR, I have no problems getting the 2 connected however the internet won’t work on the Powerbook.

I setup the initial Adhoc connection on the TR and searched for it on the Power book, I have also enabled internet sharing on the local area connection on the TR.

Any ideas why the internet won’t work on the powerbook? I have several connections branching off from my IP’s DSL modem and router, so this should not be a problem.

I am not an expert, but the only way i could get my pc’s to work ad hoc was to run a proxy on the machine that connects to the internet. analog x worked well and you can download it from here.
 
you need the PROXY.

Will this work with a Mac? (obviously installed the software on the TR). Surely XP and OSX much be capable of this.
