Ok .... It's hard to do , but im perplexed

Bought a pc for daughter for x-mas ..... also bought netgear router wgr614,
wireless usb 2.0Adapter wg111 v2 & a netgear wireless card wg311t (I cant
afford the usb port only 4). My machine is hard wired thru on-board intel
pro 100 VE to router . Now I set it up rather quickly and got both machines
to access internet BUT I don't want that. She will have to access intertnet
through my ICS. But When I attempt to set up a network and click on My
network places in the start menu all I get is, my websites on MSN ??!!??!!??
So then I go to control panel, click on network connections there is nothing
there .... Is there some service that is not turned on possibly? Also while
the window is open (also did this from control panel) I clicked on network
setup wizard NOTHING happened I mean nothing ..... is like the shortcut goes
to nothing So then I put in the Windows cd w/ sp2 and attempt to run the
wizard. Again nothing. I am truly puzzeled.


WinXP Home sp2 Build 2600 (I believe)
512 ram
intel 3.0 ghz
ati x700
audigy 4

I'm perplexed too. Why are you trying to run ICS and a router? They
both do the same thing, except the router does it better. Trying to
have both active at once leads to problems, as you've discovered.

The ICS was an after thought .... maybe remove router, send her machine
straight thru mine via the wireless?

But ..... doesnt adress the problem of no network connections showing up on
my machine ..... I show up on hers and can configure to connect ..... but I
see nothing here and network wizards do not come up.
