I have been pulling my hair out for months on this problem, I have an Asus WL-520GU running tomato USB mod, mostly running as a print sever and not hard wired to anything, a Blackberry 8330 (no built in wifi) hook to my main system via USB for my Internet, and a USB wireless adapter to connect to the Asus. And all systems using Windows 7. I tried to set up internet sharing for other systems in the house with a Ad-hoc network from the system with the blackberry attached, and setting sharing in the blackberry connect going through the wireless adapter, they will connect but no Internet. Is there anyway to bring in the Asus router into the picture, can I some how use the blackberry through the USB on the Asus which would solve my problems in a nut shell. Or can I some how forward form the Asus to the wireless adapter on my main system to the blackberry?

Sorry your set up is not clear to me. What is your main system ? Does Asus WL-520GU support Ad-hoc mode ? It would be good if you clearly describe your setup. What are the devices you have, how are they connected and what is your ultimate goal ?
It is better to ask this problem to Asus developers. They know their system much better than anyone else.

My main computer has the blackberry as a modem attached via USB and has a USB wireless adapter. My Asus router is only connected to two printers via the USB hub connected on the router. The ad-hoc network was set up on the computer with the blackberry modem, but internet sharing didn't work, nothing to do with the Asus router. My main goal is to figure out how to share the blackberry connection with two other computer. If I could some how do this through the router then all computer can easily hook through it for the internet.

So your PC and Blackberry connected in ad-hoc network. You need to connect your router in that same ad-hoc network and then configure the router such that default gateway would be the blackberry. I am not sure such facility is available in the Asus router or not.

I am sorry to say I think your right about the asus router, but I will have to do some research on the matter.

Also it is better to ask Asus developers in their forum because they definitely have more experience. So they can help you immediately.
