No, connection sharing starts its own DHCP server on the "downstream" interface (the one with ipv4.method=shared). If you need only to pass frames between two interfaces, probably you can use a bridge instead... > I'm sharing an interface and the Wi-Fi connects to either a > home/small-office router which serves DHCP, or it connects to an access > point which passed DHCP requests to a corporate server. .... however, note that a Wi-Fi client interface usually doesn't work when it is under a bridge. So I think your only option (if I understood well what you want to do), is connection sharing, which creates a different subnet with DHCP on the downstream interface and enables NAT. Beniamino
