What is the right way to use Internet Sharing in OS X?

What is the right way to use Internet Sharing in OS X? For a while now I've been using the Wireless in my Mac Mini as a seperate WiFi access point because my main router doesn't quite cover my whole house. There is a dedicated CAT 5E line down to the Mini, which has a static IP address.

"I've also run into this problem when using Internet Sharing in OS X. It seems that Internet Sharing is only setup to work for impromptu mac-to-mac networks, especially when not using Mac OS X Server.

You might have better luck buying a cheap wireless router, disabling NAT, and using it as a wireless bridge."
