I have only one ethernet card and I'm usingt a hub to get additional ports. ICS only sees the port on the card and not the ports onh the hub. Seeing only a single network, ICS won't configure.
Help!!!

It's been a while so might be wrong but I believe you need a dedicated network card for ICS.

A HUB is a dumb terminal you need a Switch or Router.

ICS acts a simple DHCP server and it will assign the Network Card 192.168.01 IP address, and it can only give out one IP address 192,168.0.2

Anything attached to the LAN Cable, Windows will be ignorant off, that is the way it has always worked, so yes attaching a hub WILL NOT give you 4 Network Ports as far as Windows is concerned, all this and more can be GOOGLED......
