ICS Control v.21 – utility for controlling internet connection sharing

ICS Control is a GUI front-end for Internet Connection Sharing, a component of Microsoft Windows Mobile. It can be configured to do a variety of things including sharing your cellular internet connection over an adhoc WiFi network.

Requirements: .NET Compact Framework 2.0 and Windows Mobile 5 or later with the IPNAT driver included (most WM6 builds have this built-in). The “Internet Sharing” application that some phones have is not required, but IPNAT is. ICSControl is a single .exe file, included in the zip file below. You can place it directly in /Windows/Start Menu/Programs/ on your device and it will appear as an icon in Programs. Or you can place it elsewhere and create a shortcut.

Changelog v0.21

- Added host names from DHCP leases to DMZ and InternalHost dropdown lists.

ICS allows a private network (for example, an ad-hoc WiFi network) to access another network (for example, the internet) as long as the Windows Mobile device is connected to both networks. It should be able to share between any set of adapters. The common configurations of course would be:

Cellular to WiFi (probably the most common scenario, sharing internet access to a WiFi network) Cellular to Bluetooth PAN Cellular to USB

But it should also work with more “interesting” combinations like:

VPN to Wifi – get wireless clients onto a VPN Wifi to Bluetooth – allow bluetooth network devices to access a WLAN. Wifi to USB – basically the pda acts as a wireless network card for the PC
