ICS not quite working

[Guest]

I want to share an internet connection in a shop with cash registers on fixed
IP addresses in the 10.0.0.* range. The internet connection host IP address
is 10.0.0.15 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0. The client IP address is
10.0.0.102. The default gateway and DNS server are both set to 10.0.0.15.

From the client I can ping the host. I can also ping website hosts if I
know the IP address. But I cannot get the web sites to render in explorer,
with one exception.

The exception is interactived.com (202.72.147.198 - my own web site). I can
browse that site on the client computer. But I cannot browse Telstra.com
(144.135.18.10) on the client computer. Yet I can ping 144.135.18.10 from
the client computer.

Can anyone suggest from this what is wrong and how I can fix it?

ICS sets the host's LAN IP address to 192.168.0.1. If I understand
your question, you've changed it to 10.0.0.15, which can cause ICS to
stop working properly.

Try setting the client's DNS server address to your ISP's DNS server.

OK thanks to Steve Winograd and Robert L.

I'll try that and post the result in about half an hour.
