You just have to create a new wireless connection. In the "IPv4 settings tab" of the "Edit Connection" dialog choose "Shared with other computers" from the "Method" drop down list.

This should solve your problem. -- Anuvrat Parashar ______________________________________ | | | link to my blog, *μ*blog or social networks | | http://about.me/anuvrat.parashar | |______________________________________| -- LUG@IITD - http://lug-iitd.org/Footer
