Cannot access internet thru slave computer

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



I have successfully created a home network via crossover cable between my
desktop PC (host), and laptop (slave), and can share files and printer. I
cannot get the laptop to access the internet via the host. I use a BT Voyager
105 USB modem, and my host network connections show my broadband sign on
link, a LAN, and a LAN 3 connection which is the modem. When I create a sign
in on the slave it says "connecting by Wan miniport PPPoe", and then stops
saying that it can't connect. I've set the host/slave set ups to allow
direct/connect through respectively. The only firewall is Zone Alarm on the
host. I assume I need modem divers on the slave. Can anyone save my sanity
and tell me what I'm doing wrong and how to do it right.
Thanks.
