"Cable router" a broadband router? why then are you connecting the computers
to each other rather than directly to the router?

I have a sort of funky setup I'm trying to get working.

PC #1 has two NICs:

NIC1 - Wireless card getting internet (DHCP) from a router using
192.168.0.x subnet
NIC2 - Ethernet card I want to use for sharing NIC1 connection. (If I
use ICS, it tries to assign this NIC 192.168.0.1 and THIS is a
problem).


PC #2 Has one NIC with a crossover cable to NIC2 on PC #1.

In a nutshell, my cable router is NATing the real cable modem address
to 192.168.0.0 and this conflicts with ICS setting for NIC2. Is there
a way to force ICS to use some other network ???? Note, I don't have
admin access to the wirelesws router and can't force it to use some
other inside subnet. Since the router is in effect 192.168.0.1, the
ICS wizard craps out and I need to trick it (if possible).

Thanks in advance
Ron
