I have a WIn 98 system and use ICS to allow several
computers to use a common cable modem internet
connection. Everything worked fine until I recently moved
and we did not have the LAN up for awhile. The host
computer still connects and browses the net fine however
the client computers will only load certain websites. All
four clients appear to behave the same. What would cause
only certain websites to load?
 
Don't know for sure but used ICS for years with no problems.

You say you moved... after moving did you remove ICS then put it back again
or did you just leave the original setup?

I'm just wondering if your ISP changed and as a result ICS is looking at the
wrong DNS server or something? Generally they suggest having the clients set
to auto which gets info from the host or gateway, ie 192.168.0.1 and that
almost always works, but if they have fixed IPS etc maybe winipcfg + release
and renew might help... I am assuming you're not unfamiliar with this. The
internet connection to the ICS machine itself I generally had set to auto as
required by ISP.

How are your clients connected to the ICS machine? That might help someone
else find an answer.
