My wife's Win2000 machine is connected to a Cable Modem, and has been actively sharing the internet connection via a Netgear hub to my laptop. Recently, I had to re-install win2000 on her machine, and upon completion, the Netgear card failed to be recognised (my Sygate software was saying "no NIC address"). I replaced the card with a RealTek, and now the machines can see each other fine, and the network is active. The problem is though, now my Laptop is completely refusing to connect to the Internet. As said, the machines can see each other fine and transfer files etc... but no Internet connection for my laptop. The setup seems perfectly normal. Can anyone help?

make sure to re-enable internet connection sharing on the pc. also make sure you re-run the software on the disk that ics makes for you. hope this helps. brad_002

The internet sharing is done using Sygate's Home Network. I've never had this problem before (I've had to reinstall W2K before). I have also never seen any internet sharing options on my W2K either, although the help file mentions it, I have no Sharing tab on my LAN connection properties... Hmm - anyone know why? Who is ICS?? I've re-run my Sygate software twice, but obviously - same results.
