I'm having trouble with ICS on two-computer network, both running XP
SP2.
After running the Network Setup Wizard, and making additional manual
configurations:
The host is configured with:
IP Address: 192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: <blank>
DNS Server: 203.xxx.xxx.xxx (as per ISP setup instructions)
The client is configured with:
IP Address: 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1
DNS Server: 192.168.0.1
* ping 192.168.0.1 works OK.
* BUT ping, say the IP address of Google, 216.239.39.99 fails (Request
timed out).
* Checking for Winsock corruption using the netdiag tool finds no
corruption (the test passess successfully).
* File/print sharing works perfectly; can play games across the
network perfectly.
* Firewalls (Windows and ZoneAlarm) have been disabled (on the host).
However, the Internet cannot be accessed from the client computer.
I'm baffled, any suggestions?
Kind regards,
Ghostrider
