Hello, and thanks for any help.
I recently got into home networking, and thought I'd give it a try. Since Windoes XP has the networking wizard, I figured it would be pretty easy to do. After setting up my LAN, I was successfully able to browse my client computer from my host. However, when I enabled internet connection sharing, I lost internet on both host, and client. I have my host computer installed with 2 NIC cards and acting as the router. I enabled routing in my registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters) and rebooted. Still, when I start the network, my internet is shut down. If I disable my network, my internet is connected again on the host computer. I am using DSL. Can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong?
