I want to share my internet connection with other computers in my office but they do not have wireless card. I got a tp-link with model TL-MR3220 to help me do the distribution using a cables. Now, I plugged the usb modem into the usb port of my computer and got it connected to allow my computer to have access to the internet. What should I do that my other computers will have internet access from the router through the cables connected to the LAN ports of my router?

Samson.

Contact your IT dept. Every company I've worked for that had computers would discipline a worker who tried to do this on their own.

Why would you use your computer to share a wireless broadband connection when you purchased a router that is designed exactly to do that.

You should be able to plug the USB modem directly into your new router

To use your computer you will need to use something called ICS which is well documented on microsofts site. It gets very tricky to setup ICS when you want to put another router you really should just use a simple switch.

Still it will likely be much easier to just use the router for what it is designed and share your connection with the router.

Thank you Bill001g. But will I be able to use cables to distribute to other computers using cables as they do not have wireless card? so can only get access to the internet using cables.

Yes that router has ethernet ports on it you just plug into them. This is just a special router that takes the wan over the USB rather than cable or whatever

Bill001g, I really appreciate your help. All things are working well but says no internet access. my LAN says internet access but the other computers are not able to get that access. when I ping them it goes through but still says "no internet access"

You likely need to log into the router and make sure it was successful at connecting to the ISP on the USB wireless. It tends to be more involved than just plugging in the USB. Many times you must put in some form of userid or password...it varies greatly from ISP to ISP
