Please reply as soon as possible. Thanks Patronsoft Team and its users.

1) Since you disable NAT within FirstSpot, make sure you setup return route in the router in the next hop. Refer to the manual firstspot_guide.pdf for details. If you have difficulty understanding the implication on disabling NAT, please enable NAT in FirstSpot for the time being.

2) Your adapter "Wireless Network Connection" might conflict with FirstSpot Private Network Interface "Local Area Connection 3" since they have the same subnet. I suggest you to disable "Wireless Network Connection" before starting FirstSpot.

Thx Alan... I solved the problem but it wasnt about NAT. I had pre set up wireless netowrk and i had DHCP on my CISCO router and In my public NIC i had auto configure IP address. I didnt know i have to change it manually for Firstspot to find out Public NIC's IP addresss. Well anyways. I have one more question since i dont want to read everything inmanual. I dont want people to put user name and passowrd .. is there any other way i can get rid of it and guests can directly coonect to internet?

You can take advantage of the Anonymous mode.
