No Netbuie is not a routable protocol. You must use TCPIP protocol.

Need more info... Definately don't need NetBeui to share internet, only IP.

See my website for a brief description on how to network your home.

liek they said you need TCP/IP in order to get internet access on these sytems...but NetBeui is still important for you cause you need it to share the files over the LAN, so don't get rid of it
