Hi,
How do I setup internet connection sharing with WinXP Pro and Win98SE?
The XP PC is going to be the host. I have a cable modem (using DHCP) which is connected to a Netgear NIC. I also have an internal NIC (currently with no settings) which I'm going to connect to a switch. The 98 PC has a Netgear NIC (currently with no settings) which is going to connect to the switch.
Now I'm not sure if this is right so that's why I'm asking. Am I suppose to setup the ICS on the connection that has the internet (in my case the Netgear). If so, doesn't ICS assign 192.168.0.1 to it therefore messing up the DHCP?
Also, do I manually assign 192.168.0.2 to the other PC? Do I add or change any other settings? If I use automatic configuration though, would my ISP also assign an IP for it? If that's the case, I don't want to because I don't want them to know
I'm sure there's more to this so please enlighten me. Thanks.
