Windows 7: Sharing An Adsl Connection In An Ad Hoc Type Network - Hercules ePlug 200 Nano PT Manual

Hercules ePlug 200 Nano PT
4.3.2. Windows 7: Sharing an ADSL connection in an Ad hoc type
network
Let's take the example of a Hercules HomePlug network composed, on one end, of an ADSL USB or Ethernet
modem directly connected by a cable to one of your computers (which we will refer to as Connection point A),
and, on the other end, of a computer (which we will refer to as Connection point B) on which you want to
access the Internet.
Connection point A Connection point B
You are in Ad hoc mode. In this mode, the computers are directly connected to one another, without an
access point (or router), via the HomePlug network. In order for Connection point B to be able to access the
ADSL connection at Connection point A:
- Connection point B must be part of the same HomePlug network as Connection point A.
- The computer connected to the modem must be powered on.
- The Internet line must be active.
