Internet Connection Sharing with Wireless G Router

R

Ryan

I'm having troubles with the Internet Connection Sharing
software in Windows 2000. Both computers have windows 2000
SP4 running and can connect and browse files on each
other, however due to the Wireless G Router I cannot
utilize the ICS for my phone line connection on the host
computer. I think the problem is that the router is giving
out the IP and not the host computer itself. Does anyone
know a way around this?
Thanks,
Ryan Heidendahl

It shouldn't matter where you're getting an IP from, but put a static
IP address on each system to see if you're correct. It would help if
you could translate "I cannot utilize the ICS for my phone line
connection on the host computer" into something a little more definite
for us to go on. telling us exactly why you think this is the case
would be a good start, using error messages you see when you try.
