Hello,
I used to share the connection that I received on my laptop's WiFi to
my local lan; this allowed me to get a network connection on my
Desktop without installing a wifi card in it. However, I've recently
have not had a need for this setup.
I disabled ICS by deselecting "Allow users to use this connection..."
in the WLAN properites page. I've also removed the static IP from my
Local Lan 1. But now I have a Window's Mobile device (Local Lan 2 --
HTC Mogul) that I use as a modem. However, when I use this device,
the IP address that the laptop pulls from the Mogul is 192.168.0.*,
with a 192.168.0.1 gateway and a Comcast DNS server (the Mobile device
is a Sprint PCS modem). It should be pulling a non-local ip.
I've checked to make sure that there is nothing static set on the
device, but everything is set to use the DHCP service...
I think that my Laptop still has ICS enabled, and is hijacking my DHCP
request to my sprint connection.
Solutions I have tried:
De-checking "Allow users to use this connection"
Disabling the Windows Firewall/Internet Sharing Service
Adding a Static IP and removing it
Release/Renewing IP address while the device is connected.
Reflashing the Device to a factory default
Any ideas?
