I have XP running on a laptop and PC.

On the laptop, in the Network Connections folder, it
displays (correctly) the title Internet Gateway with the
proper icon.

On the PC (which is on the same LAN), I have tried
several times to set this up, and CANNOT get the
title/icon to be displayed.

What is the trick to having this show-up ???

Thanks in advance!
