That explains the hand print! I'd better appologize to hubby, eh? LMFAO!

Glad you got to the "router" of the problem! I was gonna say it was A.O.L. too...but I didn't want to be so bold. Anyone I've ever known with A.O.L. has had some problem sharing something with those who don't have it. A.O.L. wants to rule the world and won't believe that Bill Gates already does!

Correct?

If so, in order to use this configuration, I think you would have to configure the router to assign IP addresses to its internal interfaces as a DHCP client - your machine running Internet Connection Sharing is a DHCP server, your other machine has to have the default gateway for its network card set to the IP address of the interface of the router that it's connected to, which you wouldn't know until the router's started up and has been assigned addresses for its interfaces - if you can even configure it that way. There may even be more than that to do - it's hard to say without actually being there. My suggestion would be, as I believe others have given, to replace the router for now with a switch or hub (switches are better) - it will make life much simpler. Or, connect one PC to the other using a crossover cable.

JHCOAB! My head is spinning from all that info :dizzy: :yikes: LMAO! I've read and reread it and I still don't know what's connected to the ham bone!

OK...I'm going again. I get silly around techies!

*hugs*

Hehehehe....sorry to disappoint you Lixy hun, but that was actually Fussy - he forgot to sign out as me, because he's a bit daft.

Made me sound really good though, didn't it?! LMAO

You ARE really good Lou...in many, many ways! I just thought you expanded your horizons...or at the least, asked Fussy some tech questions and typed your heart out as he spoke! LOL!
