[strra]

don't ask why, but what i'm really trying to do here is share my PAM connection with a router.

to illustrate, basically [phone]>{vista}>(router)>{laptop}

i can connect vista to the internet via PAM, i share the connection via ICS, i have the pc hooked up to the wan port of the router.... but my laptop gets no internet and the router reports "NO CONNECTION"

any ideas?
