Re: LAN, but no Internet Connection

Nik

I hit a similar problem yesterday on an XP Home/XP Pro P2P network. (Gave up
trying to get W2K to talk to XPH!)

Solved it as follows:

1. On the host machine, with the internet connection live, ipconfig/all to
determine the ISP's DNS server addresses (should be two).

2. On the guest machine, enter the IP addresses determined above as the
Preferred and Alternate IP addresses in the TCP/IP properties for the LAN
connection.

I don't know if this is the "approved" method but it worked for me when
nothing else did. I can now access the internet from the guest machine
without any difficulty.

I only have a firewall (Norton) on the host machine and I configured it to
accept comms to/from the static IP address for the NIC (in your case
192.168.0.110) and it seems to work fine. I ran the Symantec security check
from the guest and no problems were reported.

Hope this helps or that you can adapt my solution to your problem.
