Hi my name is Paul and here is my question

I have 2 pcs that were connected to a linksys router which was
connected to a modem then to a phone jack. All worked well until I
moved to a new house.

I got no phone jack in my room in the new house so I purchased a
linksys wireless router and connected it to the modem then to a phone
jack in a different room that has the phone jack.

Then I got a wireless network card and installed it in to my pc and got
it going

Now here is the tricky part

I need to make my PC that has the wireless card and a 10/100 Network
card into a router so that I can change the wireless signal in to a
wired signal so that I can make my old linksys router work in the other
room


So to summaries this

Modem to wireless router - works
Wireless router to PC1 - works
PC1 10/100 Network card to wired router - works

How to share internet from pc to old router - help

How do I turn my PC with windows xp Pro in to a router that shares
internet?

Thanks

I'm pretty sure than WinXP can't do this. You can try using window's to
"bridge" the connections and see if that works, but I've never had luck
with that myself.
