Can I hook up my ASICMiner Cube to my laptop via ethernet and still mine with the connection being through Wi-Fi?  Been messing around with the settings and ports and have had no luck.  All the forums and set-up guides have it connected through a router.  Unfortunately, I cannot do this for the router is not in my place.  Thank you for the help!

Yeah you'll need some kind of bridge adapter unless your laptop has two wireless cards.

Why not look into Raspberry Pi w/ a wireless dongle and use the Pi as your miner controller with linux?  Probably easier/cheaper than managing bridged network connections.  You also don't need to have your laptop around all the time either.

A bridge might be the way to go.  I think I would like to do it on my desktop while I am gone.  I have a wireless card in my desktop as well as 2 Ethernet ports on the motherboard.  Any way of making that work?

I just see no difference in a raspberry pi if it can do it through Ethernet and a wireless dongle compared to mine.

@OP sure you can hook up your "ASICMiner Cube" to your laptop via ethernet and more importantly be able to mine thru WIFI  !

Awesome!  Are they are special settings needed to do this?  I have been working on it for a day and still nothing.  Sad
