I'm attempting to share my wifi connection from my Ubuntu computer to my raspberry pi through the ethernet port. I've tried a lot of things and nothing seems to work.



Right now I've created a wired connection, set it to "share to other computers" and "allow all users to connect', and then on my wifi connection I switched it to "allow all users.." and "shared to other computers". I really have no idea why it doesn't work.

          Try this



          Enable IP forwarding. This is done either by using



          echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward


          After that add a rule telling to forward the traffic



          sudo iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o wifi0 -j ACCEPT
          sudo iptables -A FORWARD -i wifi0 -o eth0 -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT


          Because you router do not known for your lan network we must do masquarade



          sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o wifi0 -j MASQUERADE


          NOTE: In example eth0 is name of nic card, wifi0 is name of your wifi card.
          You can see card's names with command ip a or ifconfig

                      I just had the same issue and solved it like this.



                      In the terminal type



                      nm-connection-editor



                      When it opens, select the wired connection item, clicking the edit button (the cog). In that menu, switch to the IPv4 tab, and select the method: 'shared to other computers'.



                      Then save the settings and it should work
