I have one computer running Vista connected to the cable modem, and one
computer running XP. The two are connected via a wired network using a hub (no router). I finally got file and printer sharing to work. On both computers, under TCP/IPv4, I obtain an IP address automatically on the general tab and use an alternate configuration with a static IP address. On the Vista computer, I checked the 'allow' box under ICS. But I still can't access the internet on the XP. |

I think this is the problem: "obtain an IP address automatically on the
general tab and use an alternate configuration with a static IP address". Post back with the result of ipconfig /all may help. -- Bob Lin, MS-MVP, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com "mr.hock" wrote in message ...

I have been told that I need to assign an IP address to my home computers
since I have a hub, not a router. This worked until I added the new Vista computer. But if I just assign IP addresses, I can't access the internet even on the Vista. I tried the "combination", and it at least allows file and printer sharing between computers, and internet access on the Vista. Here is the ipconfig. No telling how bad I've screwed things up. (Can you tell I don't know what I'm doing?) Thanks, John Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6000] Copyright (c) 2006 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

It sounds like your Vista is the Host on ICS and the XP is the Client. I
would try on the XP machine to go to Start/My Network Places/Network setup wizard and use that to get your XP machine to use the Vista machine for Internet sharing. When your done you should be able to run an IPCONFIG /ALL command and see that your local NIC card has an IP address of 192.168.0.X. That wizard should make the process simple. I've done this on my soho network recently quite easily on XP's. Not so easy on Vista.
