i have a home network with a cable modem and a router set
up. my pc is hooked into the router and is working just
fine. i just installed windows xp on my roomates pc from
scratch, and for some reason, it is forcing internet
connection sharing to run. when i go to the network
properties, it has the local area connection AND an
internet gateway that says internet connection. windows
won't let me disable or delete this icon. when i go to
the network setup wizard, i tell it to choose another
connection type, and select hub. a message then comes up
saying that this connection type isn't recommended due to
security issues (firewall) and it just reverts back to
using an internet gateway. i tried setting up my router
and using IP addresses and such, but nothing seems to
work. he also only has one ethernet card in there. is
there any way that i can get the network settings to work
properly without using ICS? thanks for any help.
