Windows2K ICS

[TP Diffenbach]

I've ben using ICS for a while, but I think I've had it backward.

I have an ethernet card connected to a DSL modem, and a PPPOE "dialup"
connection adaptor on top of that.

I also have a wifi over usb ethernet adaptor.

I've been using ICS by sharing the Wifi connection, so the Wifi
ethernet adaptor has been 192.168.0.1.

This has been helpful, because it's allowed me to specify that static
IP address for the devices connecting to that adapter over wifi.

But now I want to share my connection not just to the wifi adapter,
but also to a TAP connection used by a vmware like process running on
my PC.

Ideally, I want everything (except the DSL connection) to have a
static IP address, because this makes it easier to know how to reach
the various network nodes.

Right now, the device on the other side of the wifi connection can
ping the wifi adaptor at 192.168.0.200, but nothing else -- the wifi
adaptor doesn't seem to be passing anything forward.

Below you'll find my current configuration as returned by ipconfig
/all; the device that connects to the wifi uses a static IP of
192.168.0.201. For privacy, the actually external IP address has been
elided.

Thanks for reading, and any help is appreciated.

Hi,

Remove the default gateway from the wifi adapter.
