I am trying to share my Ubuntu 11.10 internet connection via my wireless to another computer via ethernet. When I try to share them I get this endless "Connection Established"/"Disconnected" loop. I've tried updating everything, tried using Firestarter, tried everything I knew to. The card is supported for this because I was able to do it back in 11.04. Any help would be nice. :)

worked for me

Not working for me. With the wired connections I have done the IPv6 stuff and dnsmasq and still if I so much as think about sharing with the wired cards it starts the endless loop. Dec 12, 2011 at 1:48

Worked for me too: with Ubuntu 11.10 and 10.04, but I had to unplugg the ethernet cable, then it worked.– mathMar 4, 2012 at 11:38
ICS seems to work perfectly despite the messages.
Killing the nm-applet from the System Monitor got rid of the messages and ICS was still working OK.
Solution:
Go to the IPv6 Settings tab for the ICS connection, set the method to Ignore and uncheck the Require IPv6.... box.

Solved - go to the IPv6 Settings tab for the ICS connection, set the method to ignore and uncheck the 'Require IPv6....' box. Feb 1, 2012 at 11:32
