Default Access Internet on Vista via ICS enabled Windows XP


Hi,

Windows Vista Ultimate does not connect Internet through ICS enabled
Windows XP machine. Earlier, I could do it, when I had windows xp
installed.

After installing Vista Ultimate, I did necessary settings and could
access other Computers and files on LAN. (Not WiFi).

We have a main Computer which has broadband connection and ICS enabled.
Every Computer with Windows XP can connect on Internet through it.

Vista Ultimate even shows Internet Connected icon on task bar (Earth
Icon on Network Connected Icon next to time). In Network options the
Network Map is also complete. The Internet icon is visible there also.
Even the main ICS enabled Computer is pinged and vice versa. But no Web
Pages can be opened. I even tried turning Firewall off and safety off
but no chance so far.

Please help.

Thanks in advance

Ronny

Assuming you are using Windows XP's built-in firewall, go to the Firewall
Setting (Control Panel - Security) and on the Exceptions tab make sure ICS
(Internet Connection Sharing) is checked.
