[SOLVED] Internet Connection Sharing with a Twist
Ok folks... I've run out of options and I need help!!
Here's my wierd setup: I have a standard network (let's call it FORTDESPOT ) with two computers ( let's call them Computer JIM, and CHUCK ) running win xp, each hard wired to a router. - No problems there I then have a third computer ( Let's call him JACK ) running vista that is hardwired onto a second lan port on one of the pc's ( CHUCK ) already on the network. How can I get JACK to join the network FORTDESPOT, and be able to use the web by connecting not to the router, but to CHUCK? Enabling internet connection sharing yeilds no result. Thank you! ps - I've attached a handy dandy image showing my setup if the random names are sorta confusing... -Chuck |

Re: Internet Connection Sharing with a Twist
I don't think you can just plug Ethernet to Ethernet..
Im sure you will need a network hub

Re: Internet Connection Sharing with a Twist
Sure you can, just bridge the two connections in CHUCK, that should allow both computers to pull their own IP address from the router.
