To enable Internet Connection Sharing on a network connection

  1.. Open Network Connections.
  2.. Click the dial-up, local area network, PPPoE, or VPN connection you
want to share, and then, under Network Tasks, click Change settings of this
connection.
  3.. On the Advanced tab, select the Allow other network users to connect
through this computer's Internet connection check box.
  4.. If you want this connection to dial automatically when another
computer on your home or small office network attempts to access external
resources, select the Establish a dial-up connection whenever a computer on
my network attempts to access the Internet check box.
  5.. If you want other network users to enable or disable the shared
Internet connection, select the Allow other network users to control or
disable the shared Internet connection check box.
  6.. Under Internet Connection Sharing, in Home networking connection,
select any adapter that connects the computer sharing its Internet
connection to the other computers on your network.
 Important

  a.. You should not use this feature in a network with other domain
controllers, DNS servers, gateways, DHCP servers, or systems configured for
static IP.
  b.. When you enable Internet Connection Sharing, the network adapter
connected to the home or small office network is given a new static IP
address configuration. Existing TCP/IP connections on the Internet
Connection Sharing computer are lost and need to be reestablished. For
example, if Internet Explorer is connecting to a Web site when Internet
Connection Sharing is enabled, refresh the browser to reestablish the
connection.
  c.. To use the Internet Connection Sharing feature, users on your home or
small office network should configure TCP/IP on their local area connection
to obtain an IP address automatically. Home or small office network users
must also configure Internet options for Internet Connection Sharing.
 Notes

  a.. To open Network Connections, click Start, click Control Panel, and
then double-click Network Connections.
  b.. You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the
Administrators group in order to complete this procedure. If your computer
is connected to a network, network policy settings may also prevent you from
completing this procedure.
  c.. Internet Connection Sharing and Internet Connection Firewall cannot be
enabled on incoming connections.
  d.. For information about the protocols, services, interfaces, and routes
that are automatically configured, click Related Topics.
  e.. To enable Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) Discovery and Control on
Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, and Windows Millennium Edition
computers, run the Network Setup Wizard from the CD or floppy disk on these
computers. For more information about the Network Setup Wizard, click
Related Topics.
  f.. For ICS Discovery and Control to work on Windows 98, Windows 98 Second
Edition, and Windows Millennium Edition computers, Internet Explorer version
5.0 or later must be installed.
  g.. The Home networking connection is only present when two or more
network adapters are installed on the computer.
  h.. Internet Connection Sharing, Internet Connection Firewall, Discovery
and Control, and Network Bridge are not available on Windows XP 64-Bit
Edition.
