I have a small network winxp and others that used to work ok,
but now only the host can acess the internet
The client cannot ping external IP numbers.
but can ping internal IP numbers
pinging www.bbc.co.uk for example attempts a ping on 212.58.224.124 but
fails "destination host unreachable"
the same command from the host works ok.
so I guess DNS lookup is working ok from client.
this is the result of ipcofig /all on the host:
