Share internet connection over Wi-Fi

I am using MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard, and my system is connected to internet via wired broadband connection.

I want to share internet connection from my MacBook Pro via Wi-Fi, so I can connect other devices to internet.

How can I achieve this?


Solution 1:

This all happens inside the "Sharing" pane of "System Preferences":

  1. Select "Internet Sharing" from the list
  2. Select "Ethernet" from the popup menu
  3. Click the checkbox next to "Wi-Fi"
  4. If you wish to secure the wireless network a password, click the "Wi-Fi Options..." button
  5. When you've got it all set up how you like, click the checkbox next to "Internet Sharing"
  6. There is no step 6
