[SOLVED]Wifi sharing over ethernet cable doesn't work Gnome 3.16.1

Hi I wanted to share my Wifi from my laptop to another Pc via ethernet cable. On Gnome versions older than 3.14, that was pretty simple. Now I tried this solution and this.
None works. I know my cable works as it worked perfectly on previously installed Arch Linux systems and I tested just now on my Windows 7 system. Just on my Gnome 3.16 system it doesn't.
Any solution for this ?

Someone who uses gnome MAY pop in, but really this is an issue with how gnome works (and when) so you may have to go to them (gnome's official support outlet) to get answers as to why its not working.... I do seem to remember seeing a post very similar to this with gnome, so maybe its some kind of bug right now? Perhaps check their bug reports?

Fortunately, all its likely doing is settings things up for you... And you can do that yourself. Check out the wiki (should be step number one when trying to get ANYTHING to work with arch), https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Internet_sharing

Your solution never worked but I tried again today after a systemupgrade and it worked with the same solution that didn't work before. Strange but I'm happy.
