I'm trying to SHARE an Internet Connection from a P2 Windows ME computer
("Host") TO a P2 Windows XP computer ("Client")--I am already sharing files
between the 2--but NO Internet Connection can be found on the XP
(Client)--this is a Dial-up Internet Connection and the File-sharing (and
supposedly Internet Connection-sharing) accomplished with a Genelink USB
Cable/software. So how DO I get my XP to receive the Internet Connection
from the M-E?
Thanks In Advance,

Neil

Are you using Internet sharing software that came with the Genelink
USB cable/software? If so, I'm sorry that I can't help, because I'm
not familiar with that product and its software.

If you want to use the Internet Connection Sharing capability that's
built into Windows, I can help. I've written some web pages with full
details.

Configure Windows ME as an ICS host as shown here:

ICS Installation [WinMe]

Configure Windows XP as an ICS client as shown here:

XP ICS - Client Setup Using the Network Setup Wizard
http://www.practicallynetworked.com/.../clientwiz.htm

To use ICS, both computers must recognize the Genelink USB connection
as a network connection and be able to use the TCP/IP protocol on that
connection.

Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group
for everyone to see. I'm sorry, but I don't answer questions
addressed directly to me in E-mail or news groups.
