ICS with AOL

I've offered to help a colleague set up a small network with Internet
Sharing over a wireless network.

Trouble is they have AOL.

How does one enable ICS with AOL, I'm not sure if it even shows up as
a Network Connection.

If you are setting up a network with the use of AOL high
speed, the short of it is it wont work. AOL High Speed
requires you log-on. you can not make a "second"
connection, you will need to get a "regular" cable high
speed connection if you want to share your connection.

hope that helps!

At the moment the connection will be modem.

Very quick look as I'm off to work soon, there is no mention in that
article of a problem with AOL, it appears to relate to a reinstal of
ICS

Thought I was going mad, I replied saying the above article did NOT
mention AOL but explained about reinstalling ICS.

Seems to be two listings under the reference you showed.

1. 3/7/00 Having trouble getting AOL to work? Check the ICS Control
panel and make sure that the "Connect to the Internet Using" selection
is set to "AOL Adapter" and not "AOL Dial-up Adapter".

AND THIS ONE;

3/7/00 If you changed a network adapter (NIC, modem, etc.) and ICS
stopped working you may be able to edit the Registry and avoid a
Win98SE reinstall. This tip may also work if you've tried uninstalling
and reinstalling ICS and it still won't work. Go here for the
procedure.

Read the correct one now, thanks,

Geoff Lane

The modem connection will show up under the network places, but it doesn't
have to be there for AOL to dial out.
