I have tried to share the dsl internet connection on my
computer with the other computers on my network (all
windows 98se, of varying speeds) i have run both the
wizard and tried to confugure the ICS manually, and
neither method worked. This computer is using a D-Link
Wireless 22Mbps NIC, and runs at 2.4Ghz. There is a
Ethernet card built into the motherboard, although i have
it deactivated. The problem is that when I try to get
the wizard to finish, the thing says that it can't share
the internet. I doubt this. If you know of a way around
this problem, plz contact me.
 
Hi,

Do you have 2 NICs enabled on this machine? To be able to
share the Internet Connection, you need one NIC that is
connected to your ISP, and another connected to your LAN.

how are the others connectde to you? do you have a dual
RJ45 port wherein the broadband connection passes thru
your PC and acts like a hub or do you still use a hub?
are you still using the other PCs' IP address or you use
PPPoE?
