| 335879 | 2005-03-20 23:43:00 | OK . In the first pic, all u need there are: File and Printer Sharing Internet Protocol TCP/IP Client For MS Networks Uninstall the rest . You dont need QOS packet scheduler, or Netbeui The 2nd top pic SHOULD be 192 . 168 . 0 . 1, for the ip address, as previously said, since u want 98 to go thru XP (XP will be the one which has ICS enabled - Which is ticked in Pic 3 top row) . Also delete default gateway in the 2nd pic on XP . This entry goes on the 98 PC, since it'll be going through the XP PC . 98 SE also supports ICS, BUT you can NOT enable ICS on the 98 SE PC (which would also make it 192 . 168 . 0 . 1) . Or as you said before there will be an ip conflict . Since XP's ICS is currently enabled / ticked . It SHOULD have changed it to this when u enabled ICS in pic 3 top (The allow other network users to connect thru this computer's internet connection option) . Also, in the 2nd pic, preferred DNS server wipe it, Leave it BLANK . Actually u dont need alternate DNS server either . (BUT if u cant get online, type the ip thats there now back in) . BUT I dont think its needed . XP isnt like previous versions . It will (or should find it) . In previous versions like 98, you HAD TO put an ip address in . Or else, you would go NOWHERE . Umm but has your friend got DSL like you and if so, a router, which you haven't got? Leave the 98 PC OFF for now . Coz if it still has 192 . 168 . 0 . 1 as its ip they'll conflict . Just do the above first . . Then we'll get onto the 98 PC's network settings . And configure 98 if its wrong . |

| 335882 | 2005-03-21 01:40:00 | Just as I thought, the Modem has the IP of 192.168.0.1 I'll finish helping D.M out via IM and one of us will post the results :) |

| 335883 | 2005-03-21 02:04:00 | There seems to be some confusion as to which one is the Gateway PC, XP or Win98, C_S is working on the premise that 98 is the gateway, Speedy is cheering for the XP machine, which one has the modem connected to it. Until that is cleared up we'll have people setting the wrong IP's to the wrong machine unless good luck intervenes, yeah right! I've got odds on the XP machine being the one with the modem and therefore the Gateway and so, must have ICS enabled. #@!%** USB modems and MS ICS. |

| 335884 | 2005-03-21 02:26:00 | No, the WinXP machine is the gateway, Im telling D.M to specify that the gateway IP as the WinXP Machine. You're right, the XP machine has it connected and its created a virtual LAN adapter for the USB interface which has been assigned 192.168.0.1 Just waiting for him to return. This is why I was hesitant to make any further longer posts, as I was mentioning to Speedy via PM. We didnt have all the relevant information so of course things have gone wrong. I do now and am helping D.M so we'll get it sorted :) Cheers Chill. |
