I can share files or connect to internet but can't do both. 1.Laptop (XP Pro)
2.Tower (XP Home sp2) Connected via LAN. If I set the IP address on 1.Laptop
to Locate IP address Auto and 2.Tower (XP Home sp2) to the address it auto
chose when the wizard setup the connection (192.168.0.1 -- 255.255.255.0) I
can connect to the Internet. But I can't see or share files from 2.Tower (XP
Home sp2)
