Internet Sharing Ethernet to WiFi disables WEP password on Mac Network?

Hi all,
I have a curious problem, I'm trying to use internet sharing to share the ethernet connection to my iMac with my iPhone and iPad over wireless (no wifi where I live).
I can create a network with WEP fine, name it whatever, encrypt it with whatever, my iPhone can connect to it etc. but as soon as I turn the tick box for Internet Sharing on, the network loses its WEP encryption (so it's unprotected) and its name reverts back to "My Name's iMac", even if I set it up as "3423rfgdfgfdg" with WEP.
Basically turning on Internet Sharing overrides all the options I set up on the network, name, security etc and my WiFi turns into an unprotected internet source and a broadcast of my name, something I don't want where I live.
Am I crazy in thinking this is a bug not a feature and there must be some solution?
I honestly look forward to seeing what you guys think, I'm stumped.
This all used to work perfectly on Snow Leopard, I remember quirks during Lion but I got it to work in the end but I'm on ML now and it just doesn't want to work.

Hey, thanks for the suggestion but that's exactly what I'm doing.
See how after you've selected Ethernet in 'Share your connection from' and WiFi in 'To computers using' you then have to click the tick box ( http://cl.ly/image/1v191f2R1F1i ) on the left hand side to actually start the whole process?
Well regardless of whether I start it up in the 'Sharing' pref first, then set up Wireless options, or set up wireless options, then start it up in the 'Sharing' pref, whatever settings I choose get overriden as soon as I start the sharing.
The network just defaults to 'Asad's iMac', without protection. I don't understand why.
P.S. on a side note when creating networksI'm not offered a WPA2 option. Only WEP 40-bit or 128-bit. Dunno if that's connected: http://cl.ly/image/2X2g3w3y0B34

Macbook Pro, update to Mavericks - internet sharing unstable (ethenet - WiFi)

Macbook Pro, update to Mavericks ->internet sharing unstable (ethenet -> WiFi)

Thanks, indeed there's not a lot there.
I was thinking that there might be a network reset option on my Snow Leopard Mac Book, like I've had a to do a time or two on my iOS devices that suddenly stop seeing the internet. Since I didn't know what that is, I set up a clean TEST user account. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to change anything, so perhaps the internet network settings are global. Any ideas how to reset the network settings and clear them out completely?
Hard to believe that there could be something so different between Mavericks and Snow Leopard as far as common network protocols are concerned that allows one to be plug and play and the other to connect to the network but not see the internet. Could it be the hardware? A 2007 MacBook vs. a 2011 MacBook Pro?

Internet sharing via dongle, how to set password for wifi network created?

I am using a USB dongle with my Mac book Pro to share internet through AirPort, so that i can access my mac book's wifi from my iphone. This works great, but it is an open network and I woud like to set up a password.
If anyone can point me in the direction I would be very grateful!
Thanks

If you are using OS X's Internet Sharing feature, then you can configure wireless security on your Mac's internal AirPort Card but are limited by the OS X version that you are using. It was not until Mountain Lion that Apple provided WPA2 security. Prior to this only WEP was available.
You configure Internet Sharing via System Preferences > Sharing > Internet Sharing. (I don't have 10.6.x on any of my Macs so this may be different for your case.) Once you configure what is shared, you can then add wireless encryption.

Imac internet sharing ethernet - time capsule - wireless client use imac

hi all,
i have the following setup in mind:
a g5 imac with 3g modem attached and internet sharing (3g/ethernet) switched on. with an ethernet cable it is connected to a time capsule. through the wireless option of the time capsule i want to be able to use the imacs internet sharing with two macbooks - its not working ....
imac: g5, no wireless, os 10.5
macbook: wireless, os 10.4
macbook pro: wireless, os 10.6
what went wrong? how to set up the time capsule to allow the internet sharing coming from a wired mac to wireless clients macbooks?
or is this not working at all???

If you configure your Mac to share an ethernet internet connection over AirPort, your G-devices should have no problem connecting. We do it here with iPods and an iPhone, they are G.
My Mac mini is connected to the internet by Ethernet cable to my ISP's Arris gateway. I am sharing the Ethernet connection to two iPod Touches and an iPhone via AirPort from my Mac mini. This is how I configured the Mac to share the connection;
1. In Sys Prefs/Sharing I highlighted Internet Sharing (do not check the box)
2. Share your connection from: Ethernet (from the dropdown menu)
3. To computers using: AirPort (check the little box)
4. Press the button AirPort Options...
5. Name your Network
6. I use Automatic for the channel
7. I encrypt my network using a 40-bit WEP key
8. *For a non-Apple device you must use only a 5 alphanumeric character, 40-bit WEP password or only a 13 alphanumeric character 128-bit WEP password*
9. Press OK
10. Check the box for Internet Sharing
11. Answer any dialog boxes that pop up

Internet Sharing via USB Wifi Dongle?

I just acquired a first gen Mini (1.25Ghz, 1GB RAM) with no Airport built in. I was able to add wireless to it via a Ralink 802.11n USB dongle. Here's my question:
Can I connect the Mini to the internet via ethernet and then use the USB dongle to share the connection with other Macs in my house?
I currently have an old PowerMac G4 acting as a server/wireless router. (Ethernet in to give it a real IP address for easy access from anywhere. Airport out to give internet access to my MacBook Pro.) It's a great setup, and serves me well (no pun intended), but if I could get the Mini to take its place, it would save me room.
Anyone know how to get one of these USB Wifi dongles to share out internets?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
SJ (no, not that SJ)

Can I connect the Mini to the internet via ethernet and then use the USB dongle to share the connection with other Macs in my house?
I don't have a USB wireless adapter, but I believe in order for this to work, you would have to be able to select it when attempting to configure Internet Sharing.
Does this USB adapter show up in the list of network devices under the Network panel in System Preferences? If it does, go to the Sharing panel. From this panel, select Internet Sharing; choose the USB adapter for the "Share your connection from" list, and then, choose "To computers using" = "Ethernet."

Easiest way to disable WEP password

What's the easiest way to disable my Airport Express password so that a house guest with Windows XP on a Toshiba personal computer can access my Airport Express signal?

This would not disable your password generally, but it would allow your guest to access the network without the password:
\[Apple's Help\]
Adding a wireless client to your network
You can provide access to your network for clients by adding them to the client list in AirPort Utility. You can provide access for as long as the client is in the list, or you can provide 24 hours of access, after which the client will no longer have access to your network.
When you provide access to your wireless network, the client does not need to enter the network password if you have set one up.
Allowing client access to your network:
Open AirPort Utility, located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a computer using Mac OS X, and in Start > All Programs > AirPort on a computer using Windows.
Select the device you’re setting up, and then click Manual Setup. Enter the password if necessary.
Choose “Add a client” from the Base Station menu, and then type a name for the wireless client.
Select “One day access only” if you want to provide only one day of access to your network. If you don’t select this option, the client will have access to your network until you remove the client’s name from the list.
To remove the client, click Advanced in the AirPort Utility toolbar, click Accounts, select the name of the client, and then click Delete .
That would save having to reconfigure the other machines on the network etc.
What I'm not sure about is whether this will work with the Express as well.

Help with using internet sharing on my MacBook Pro with an old mac mini

I have an old mini osx 10.4.11 with no wifi. My much newer MacBookPro osx10.6.7 can't seem to share it's internet connection between it and the mini via ethernet cable. I'm using the MacBook airport to connect to my SMC router.
The DHCP on the mini has an IP, and it seems correct. But, I can't get a browser to connect. Can someone suggest a way to troubleshoot?

That is the more difficult of the forms of Internet sharing possible on a Mac. Of course the easiest thing to do is put out US$100 and just get an AirPort Express and connect the mini to the Express' Ethernet port. The mini would have the fastest connection that your router puts out with none of the hassles of connecting and disconnecting when you want to leave with the MacBook.
Read over my last comment in this thread for the configuration of wi-fi to Ethernet. Just substitute the mini for the XBox.

Shared ethernet over wifi changes 'second machine' subnet

I have a Mac mini (MM) that I connect to the LAN via an access point. I also have a Linux laptop that I want to also share on the LAN. I've connected the laptop into the ethernet port on the MM and I can browse the net. The problem is that where the local subnet is 192.168.x.x the laptop has received an ip address of 192.168.2.x via DHCP.
Consequemntly, I cannot SSH into the laptop via my MM as the two machines now reside on different subnets. I had thought originally that when connecting to a MM, this would 'share' the ethernet port and would simply pass packets between the router and the 'second machine' thus using the MM as in 'bridge' mode.
Is there any reason why the second machine has now received an ip address on a different subnet?

You do need to turn on AFP sharing.. since SMB is not used by TM.. although I have to admit to some confusion..
What application are you using that is spitting out rsync errors?? That is not Time Machine. Are you trying to do this by rsync directly?
You clearly do not have sufficient permissions on the Mac Pro to whatever directory you have set.. make sure you do the rsync with su login.. and make sure on the pro you set full permissions to everyone.
"failed: Permission denied (13)", "*** Skipping everything below this failed directory ***", "failed: No such file or directory (2)", and "rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-45/rsync/main.c(992) [sender=2.6.9]".
Have you tried Carbon Copy Cloner?? That might be worth it.
Much better than Time Machine for backup over the network.
It is rsync based.
time machine app used in the guide appears to be an older version pre OS X 10.10.3
Another excellent reason to avoid TM.. it is flakey as !heaven in Yosemite.

My MacBook wont connect to the Internet on Ethernet or wifi, but it is working because my iPhone is connected to the same router and so is my friends mac

Sorry to seem so stupid. But I really don't know how to troubleshoot it anymore.
Many thanks for any help given! :D

If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way. Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

Mavericks Internet Sharing: Access logs

Hey all,
I just got internet sharing (ethernet to wifi) up and running a while back..
The thing is that when I enter the password on my other laptop it doesn't authenticate, I have a feeling that it's related to the password use or transfer upon login.. Is there a log or a monitor mode of which users are authenticating on my SoftAP and which credentials they use?
Thanks in advance,
Aaron

Hi Pagnamen.
Attached is the menu that I operate Internet Sharing from, as well as what my toolbar looks like when internet sharing is active. In order to turn Internet Sharing on, I go through System Preferences-->Sharing and tick the box you can see highlighted in the bottom left. I have three difficulties:
1. A problem i've had since I have started using the feature (in Mountain Lion). I will have Internet Sharing on for an extended period of time before it simply ceases to send an internet signal.
2. Another problem I have had since I started using the feature. I will begin Internet Sharing and the computer will believe it is operating normally. My iOS devices will receive the connection but will not be able to access the internet. Since Mavericks, this behaviour occasionally continues even after I cancel Internet Sharing...turning wifi off and on again seems to address this anomaly.
3. A new problem originating since my update to Mavericks. I will start Internet Sharing and the "Sharing Icon" (being the grey arrow attached) will appear for only a split-second before being replaced with the standard airport look. My computer will then be hunting for Wifi signals and give no sign that it is Internet Sharing. When this occurs, my devices do not register any wifi. The only solution is to restart my computer, often multiple times. This seems to address the issue.
I will also note that the first two issues have worsened since my update to Mavericks. This means that I can often spend an incredible amount of time simply trying to secure any form of connection that is sustainable.
Thanks again for any help you can render.

Force sleep without disabling Internet Sharing

Hi,
Now that Mountain Lion includes WPA2 Personal encryption for Internet Sharing over Wireless, I've decided to try using it instead of my Airport Extreme Base Station to shre my internet access with my iPhone and notebook. One of the benefits I hoped to gain was the ability to simply put my Mac mini to sleep to turn off my network when, for example, sleeping or at work. That way I reduce opportunity for unauthorized attempts at access and save energy.
The only flaw appears to be that the Mac mini doesn't want to sleep when Internet Sharing is on. I've tried using the menu item and the keystroke (Option-Command-Eject), but neither will send the Mac to sleep. To get around this, I could simply turn off Internet Sharing when I don't need it; but:
1) This means launching System Preferences and authenticating to the Sharing pane, which is cumbersome and slow
2) Internet Sharing forgets my wifi settings when it's disabled
Does anyone know of a way to force my Mac to sleep even when Internet Sharing is enabled?

Hello Scotch,
I'm working on my MBP 15' late 2011. I use it at school (Wifi network) and at home (Ethernet cable).
I also like to turn on the internet sharing for my iphone as my room is to far from our hotspot @ home... (**** you concrete walls)
But i'm also one of the jerks that abuses his mac by almost never shutting it down and just closing the lid (same as putting it to sleep).
i found out that when i close the lid with the ethernet plugged in (& sharing turned on), my macbook does not sleep. This can be handy, but can be annoying for noises at night.
If you turn off the airport on your computer, or remove the wired internet connection, the internet sharing will stop without changing your pref's.
when you turn it back on, or plug the cable back in; the sharing starts again with the same settings automaticly.
It's not 100% what you're asking for, but it does the job in 2 clicks...
i hope it helped.
Greetings,
Wouter, Belgium.

Mountain Lion on Mac Mini - WiFi unstable for Internet Sharing

I have a Mac Mini Mid 2010 MC270LL/A previously on 10.6.8 and everything worked fine.
I have it plugged into a Plasma TV via HDMI and network via CAT6, but it also doubles as a WiFi access point via Internet Sharing.
Previously WiFi was secured via WEP, I don't recall if 10.6.8 had anything stronger, most likely not, otherwise I would have gone WPA2.
I have now done a clean install of 10.8. ie erase hard drive, boot from USB and lay down a clean install of Mountain Lion.
Software update downloaded a new Firmware, which has also been applied and rebooted.
Now I've set-up Internet Sharing, used same SSID (maybe should have picked a new one in hind-sight), but secured via WPA2 - the only option.
Previously my Macbook Air 13" MC965LL/A, had undergone the same clean install treatment via wipe, then boot from USB and install 10.8.
The Wifi worked flawlessly with Macbook Air on 10.8 connecting to Mac Mini on 10.6.8 (Secured via WEP), no drop outs, connected even after sleep.
Even the power nap feature worked really well, I was impressed that when I open the lid on the Macbook Air, I had emails already waiting for me.
Now with the Mac Mini on 10.8, it's a really sad state, constant WiFi dropouts, my File Sharing disappears, Screen Sharing stops, it's a real pain.
I'm hoping it's not the new firmware, I guess I'll find out when I restore to 10.6.8 and see how it goes.
Anyone else have issues with Mac Mini WiFi on 10.8 ?

Wifi and internet sharing glicth

Hi folks, it seems I found a bug on Lion 10.7.3 regarding the internet sharing and the wifi.
I activated the internet sharing through the wifi, everytihng worked properly, and put the computer in sleep mode. When I got back to it awaking, the internet sharing was still on so I deactived it but the wifi didn't switch back to the normal wireless mode. In other words it was stuck in "sharing". The only way to resolve this issue is activating/deactivating the intenet sharing combining the switching on/off of the wifi and modifing the source of the internet connection. A mess in other words. And this happens all the time I put in sleep mode the MBP.
Any ideas to solve this bug?

Confirmed. I have the same problem on the same model MBP and the same OS version.
I had to completely reboot the machine to clear it out. Very frustrating. Anybody out there with an idea?

Internet Sharing from Macbook Pro to iPad???

Trying to get my wife's iPad to connect to the internet in a hotel that has wired high speed internet but no wifi.
My MacBook Pro connects just fine. So I turned on Internet Sharing for both Bluetooth and wifi (with WEP password for wifi).
The iPad connects to the Mac by wifi but says it has no internet connection.
With Bluetooth, it pairs OK. The Mac sets it up as serial port sharing (no other choice offered, but within that there is a choice of modem or RS232 protocol). But when I try to connect it connects momentarily then disconnects right away.
Any suggestions on how to let the iPad get at the internet in this situation?

I am still not succeeding.
I just upgraded to a new Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion. Testing at home, where there are no issues around hotel ISP limitations and I feel pretty safe originating an open wifi network for a few minutes.
Set up Internet Sharing from Ethernet to Wifi. Used the Create Network option for wifi in the menu bar to set up an open unprotected wifi network whose name is the name of my Mac. I can choose any wifi channel from 1 to 11; it makes no difference.
I can see that network from my wife's iPad, and can connect to it no problem. But as in all similar tests since Snow Leopard came out, Safari in the iPad can't open any web sites; it says it is not connected to the internet. I can also connect to the MBP wifi from my iPhone, but if I select it, the 3G symbol still shows at the top of the screen because the phone cannot find an internet connection over that wifi.
Clearly some other people are managing to do what I cannot. Quite possibly some piece of third party software on my Mac is interfering. Little Snitch, for example, though it is currently turned off.

Sharing behind Internet Sharing NAT

I have a product demonstration that will require the internet being shared from my cell to two devices via ethernet. One is hard-wired to the physical ethernet port. The other is a virtual machine configured to look like a separate device on the network (VMWare Fusion 6, not that it matters). This is the only hardware I'm allowed to bring into the facility: phone, laptop, and the one physical ethernet device.
From a topology standpoint the network would look like this:
[Internet] -- [4G -- iPhone -- tethering wifi] -- [wifi -- MacBook Pro via Internet Sharing -- ethernet] -- <two devices, A and B>
I'm attempting to use the Internet Sharing-configured NAT on the ethernet port like a typical consumer router: 1 WAN port, 2 LAN ports.
At this point, enabling Internet Sharing allows both devices A and B to connect to the internet. However, devices A and B cannot ping one another.
I've been digging into PF and 'pfctl' but I'm not seeing how to allow traffic between A and B. It's as if the virtual bridge setup by Internet Sharing is unable to act as a switch for the "local" side of the NAT.
Does anyone know how to enable this functionality of Internet Sharing to allow A and B to communicate on any port? Or perhaps have a different solution?
Thanks for any help.
Thomas

Happy to hear alternative ideas to this one... This is a goofy fix:
In System Preferences, be sure you have disabled Internet Sharing before trying this.
1) Navigate to the System Preferences -> Network and click the + to add a new interface. Make it ethernet and give it some name.
2) System Preferences -> Sharing -> Internet Sharing -> Enable whatever your internet-connected interface is to hook to "both" interfaces labeled Ethernet (despite different names, both showed as "Ethernet" for me).
3) In VMWare Fusion, choose to bridge your VM's network interface with this second, fake, Ethernet from #1.
4) Boot the VM.
What you should see is that the VM still gets assigned an IP address, but the configured NAT that provides the Internet Sharing ability now can see and route between two connected interfaces. Otherwise it seems to think the single ethernet is exactly 1 device despite there being two MACs using it.
Cheers!
