    No. Wireless only.

    Ryan – I hate to burst your bubble but what you have just described is a wireless connection. Hint: Any connection where you do not connect a cable to the iTouch is by definition, wireless.

    YES! Stephen is Wrong. If you have a Mac, I’ve shared my internet wirelessly at school with the internet coming off of the ethernet. Connect the ethernet Cable to your mac, open system preferences, sharing, and near the bottom is “Internet Sharing”. Click on the words, not the check box, and select “Ethernet” from the “Share your connection from:” Menu. Check the box under that that says Airport, go back to the left side, and check the “Internet Sharing” box. It’s easier than it sounds, trust me.

    If you’re on a PC, which I don’t have much experience with, I can’t help you. Check out this link, it seems to go step by step. Hope this helps!
