Hello Ahmed,

for clients to be able to connect to the Internet you need a router that performs NAT network address translation.

NAT is not supported on switch (unless you have a Catalyst 6500)

If you have a router connected to the Internet you should look at the NAT Commands  in the router in order to modify them to include the IP subnet of wireless clients

Example:

ip nat inside source list 11 interface fa0/0 overload

access-list 11 must contain a line for the IP subnet of the wireless users like the following:

 

access-list 11 permit 10.0.0.0 0.0.0.255   ! wired users

access-list 11 permit 10.0.10.0 0.0.0.255  ! wireless users

 

Hope to help

Giuseppe
