Hope help is out there!
I am trying to network two window XP machines using crossover cat5 cables so far so good. I can see the host machine on the client and vice-versa.
The problem is getting online with the client machine. I have installed ics and followed microsoft's suggestions on installation but cannot get it to work.
I use a usb adsl modem and have a nic installed in each machine. I have seen on these forum pages that I may need to install another nic in the host machine...I don't see what good that will do as my adsl modem is connected to the usb.
Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong? Is there a way to go about fixing this problem?
