Re: LAN, but no Internet Connection

Well, the gateway tells the machine where it should route data in order to
get off its local subnet. Thus, if the gateway is not on it lcoal subnet, it
donest know hot to get off its lcoal subnet to get the gateway. If you see
what I mean. Assuming you're using some form of internet connection sharing,
change the IP address of the non-working machine to be something like:

IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.111
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.110
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.110

See how that goes.
