    Can i use ICS on two networks?

    Hey guys,

    Basically i have 1 computer which is connected to the net via ADSL modem, its then wired to a hub which shares it to 4 other computers in the house...

    I've just got a laptop with a wireless card in, so thought it would be neat if i popped a wireless usb jobby into the 'server' computer, so that i could have wireless internet on the laptop.

    (before you say 'go buy an adsl router', i have one, but its at my house @ uni and i wont be able to get it for about a month)

    I'm running windows 2000 on the 'server' computer, and so can't do the whole 'bridge connection' thing (can i?), and under the Advanced tab of the ADSL connection it only lets me specify LAN 1 -OR- LAN 2....

    is there any way I can get internet on both, simultaneously?

    virtual cookie if anyone finds a solution

    [edit - looks like i can do it on winME...[/edit]

    Seems like you can only share it to one interface in Xp :/

    Unless you had a second box on the hub share it through its wireless interface

    I don't think so, not without resorting to 3rd party router products like kerio winroute. Might have been possible on Win2k Server, but not Pro afaik.. Although I'm no Windows networking Guru, so Paul Adams might know a way. Basically I don't care if it does support NATing multiple networks or not, since much better solutions exist

    I'd slip it a knopix or better still a ubuntu CD and enable IP forwarding / netfilter as aidanjt said. ICS is way too lame to do anything useful.

    you need to find a copy of something like winproxy - we used to use that pre ICS to share dialup connections.

    The "server" is Windows 2000 Professional, not Server, right?

    For multi-homed solutions you would need to use the "Routing and Remote Access" service and enable IP routing (or for corporate environments with some cash ISA Server 2004 is a better solution as it has firewalling too).

    I don't know of a way to "fool" ICS into supporting more than one internal network (and I was kind of surprised to see Windows ME had "primary" and "secondary" internal adapters), but then my area of expertise is servers, not workstations and it has been a few years since I fiddled with ICS.

    I think the difference is that 98/ME used a specific protocol for ICS (which could potentially be "bound" to any adapter), whereas Windows 2000 uses IP NAT and the ICS service is basic and supports only a 1-1 relationship.
