I have tried repeatedly to get ICS to work on a simple 2 computer
home network; this far without success. One machine is an 800 mhz
Athlon computer running Windows 98 SE, connected to a cable internet
provider (COMCAST @Home) via a cable modem. Internet connection
works fine. The other computer is a Windows 95 Pentium II machine.
It is networked to the first computer and the network also works
fine. But when i try to set up ICS, the Windows 95 machine cannot
access the internet via the 800 mhz one.
My internet provider (COMCAST@Home) will not offer any help in this
area since they would rather i spend some more money with them to
have a second computer hooked up. They tell me i am using a proxy
(there is a proxy URL set in my Netscape preferences). Could the
proxy be the reason I cant get ICS to work ? And, if so, is there a
way to make ICS work while using a proxy ? If its not the proxy,
any generic suggestions as to what i could be doing wrong. I
basically followed the guidance at Tim Higgins site
(timhiggins.com).
any help appreciated.
