If it isn't a wireless router, you'll need additional hardware.

yes you'll need an AP, you could do it AD-HOC with a wireless card in one of the pc's that has a wired connection but the AP is the better option imo, that or get a wireless router

ICS cannot be enabled due to an IP address conflict on the network. ICS requries the host be configured to use 192.168.0.a. Please ensure that no other client on the network to use 192.168.0.1
