Connectify, H5000 & Expedition (not an expedition problem)

Whats the best or recommended way to install and connect it all?
I use wired WebSocket from H5000 to pc, and Connectify to setup a wireless access for iPads in the boat. In addition i have Actisence transmitting to N2K instruments on deck. My problem is connecting everything to the same IP network, it seems thats not possible - I'm probably doing something strange. 
I have set up the computer wired connection to have a fixed ip address, this way the H5000 and expedition allways work - but when i do, Connectify complains about ip conflicts.

Sometimes sailing is complicated.... f

I would love some tips as to how others are setting up their stuff


Kind regards
Birger

Your Connectify network should be in another subnet then the subnet you use for the H5000-Exp connection.

I use a wired connection between my PC running Exp and my NKE instruments.  PC has a fixed IP address. Then I run Connectify Hotspot on the PC but with a different subnet mask than the PC uses to connect to NKE.   Works like a charm!
