I noticed. Do you (or anyone) happen to know of a minimal linux distro I can install on my thinkpad 770 to turn it into a wireless router? I've got one each of a wireless and 100 base-t pc cards for nics.

I tried setting up ICS under windows ME (the original OS) which proceeded to hose the machine.


You might try Devil-linux, a CD based firewall/router distro.

The wireless support should be there, (linux 2.4.29), but there are no fancy GUI configuration tools.
