Hopefully someone can point out whatever it is I am missing in this
situation:

I have a network consisting of a network printer, a netgear router, an
XP box at 192.168.0.1 with adsl modem and a second XP box.

I have gone through the network setup wizard on both host and client
machines, and told the host machine to share the internet connection.

From the client machine I can log into both the printer and the router,
but not the internet.

Can anyone help?

Thank you.

Following up to myself - oh well!

Anyway I sorted it out by completely ignoring the Network Setup Wizard
and manually setting gateway and dns ip addresses on the client machine.
