ICS

[Mav]

Hi All,

ICS is driving me up the wall.

I have a laptop & desktop, both running XP. I have run the Internet
Connection Sharing Wizard on both machines - one as connecting directly to
the Internet, the other connecting thru another machine.

I have connected both machines, but I cannot get the laptop to connect to
the Internet!!!! I have spent hours playing around, re-running the wizards.
I have connected the machines with a patch cable, crossover cable & Firewire
cable. No joy. I have been through troubleshooters several times. Nuthin'.

HELP!!!

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Mav,

Please start by providing ipconfig information for each computer.
Start - Run - "cmd". Type "ipconfig /all >c:\ipconfig.txt" into the command
window - Open c:\ipconfig.txt in Notepad, copy and paste into your next post.
Identify operating system (by name and version) with each ipconfig listing.

Cheers,
Chuck
