I need some help.
I try to share Gigabit Internet >PPPOE>Pc (1st network card)>Pc(2nd network card)>Router 10/100 (wlan)>wireless to all android devices in home.

I tried to share the login ppoe to 2nd network and all is ok but why isnt sharing the internet? On pc i got internet on router i got it connected to pc but internet isnt working.
I tried all kind of stuffs like bridging the 2 lan cards not working, i even tried to use router as hotspot nt working and so on.....
I really need help.Thanks
 
You need to use what is called ICS. It pretty much has your pc act as a router. Microsoft has excellent instructions on how to set this up and quite a bit of information about troubleshooting so you are best off searching there. Better than anything I can cut and paste here.

Still what you are trying to do is the function of a router and is so much easier if you just use a router. Now I have seen people do this to get around certain security restrictions but using your pc as a router tends to not be the best solution.

Thanks for your answear ,but if i woudnt been in needs ill probably say "...yey genius ofc ics". Do you think im an idiot who didnt searched days on internet on how to do a shit connection and hours on swiching cables that didnt worked,bridging connections, etc .... nothing works.
I need this to work cuz i wont pay 150 euro on a gigabit router that will cut in half my internet connection.I want to share a 1/10 part from gigabit connection since the 10/100 router wont use more. Please dont tell me about virtual router or conectify also i dont have a wireless card on desktop pc.
I also tried straight/cross-over cable betwin lan 2 pc and router wlan.

I only need a real network manager pro who can answear if i can share the internet from ppoe via that router or not.

Thank you and i hope you understand.

look into IPCop, its a linux firewall, you will have to repurpose one of your PCs or find another old PC.

it supports multiple interfaces(LAN, WAN, WiFi), it can establish PPPoE connections and its rock solid, i have customers that have been running those firewalls for 5 years without a restart.
 
You could have clearly said you had tried ICS and were having issues configuring it but you just have to be a insulting jerk instead. So now you can solve it yourself not realizing who you were talking to. People normally have to pay to attend security conferences I get asked to present at.
