Hi Sharon,

Your host computer needs 2 network cards to enable ICS. If this is the case,
enable ICS on this computer. Configure the client computer to receive it's IP
address via DHCP (the ICS computer will supply the IP address to the client).
There is no need to open any ports on the Windows Firewall - close them. Hope
this helps.

Regards Colin.

Your client needs a different IP than the host. Assign it 192.168.0.2 and
see what happens (leave everything else the same).
