The only time your shared connection will be available is when you tell it to connect or if there are no other wireless connections available or that you have previously configured. How do we restart it? disable the network card and then re-enable it. I dont know if there is another way to restart this or not. How do we know if it's on? The wireless network manager will tell you that you are connected to your wireless network you created. Boot info? network manager boots automatically and like I stated before, it will automatically connect to it if there are no other preferred networks. If you make the wireless network you created the only preferred network than it will always start it up first. How do we install it as a daemon?, etc.... dont know, but stated above describes how it starts automatically How do we decide what optional Wireless Security Level??? if you have older computers or older OS's then its better to use an older level of security, imo. If possible use the newest security available. WPA v1 is probably the most common these days. you should be able to see a new SSID...where? Me or they? It will say you are connected to the wireless you created, They will be able to see your new wireless network I hoped this helped, sorry to Jake for not responding in a timely fashion, summer school has kept me in a constant state of cramming.
