    You're talking about 2 different things when you mention ICS and simply connecting a desktop/laptop wirelessly to a wireless router. What exactly are you trying to accomplish? What equipment do you have (ISP/modem/router/operating system along with the piece of hardware you're using for the desktop to receive the signal (ie: internal wi-fi card, pcmcia card).

    Your description is just a bit to vague.
