XP &98 network
Hi all,
yet another networking problem ! I have two PC's networking together, Win xp home (Host) & win 98 (client). The 2 pc's are wired together via a netgear 4 port hub......win 98 in front room has just had to have the HDD reformatted due to kids downloading some strange stuff!!! I had them both working fine before re- install, but now I can't access the internet on it, I'm using Terayon Cable modem hooked into USB, pc's linked via the hub from both ethernet cards,( I know that it's not ideal to use usb for the CM, but it has always worked ok till now) I think the problem is in the basic set up somewhere. XP nic IP is 192.168.0.1......98 nic IP is 192.168.0.2......subnet mask 255.255.255.0 & workgroup is HOME. I can ping both pc's both ways, & my internet connection on the XP machine is working fine, I can also see the network & share files form XP to 98 & the other way, my printer works ok from both computers. Hope there is enough info & that someone can help me resolve this as it's giving me severe headaches trying to get it sorted |

Hope there is enough info & that someone can help me resolve this as it's giving me severe headaches trying to get it sorted Two ways to configure the 98 computer as an ICS client: 1. Configure the TCP/IP properties to obtain an IP address automatically. The ICS host will automatically give it the right settings. 2. Configure the TCP/IP properties manually: IP Address: 192.168.0.x (1x255) Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1 DNS Server = 192.168.0.1 -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.
