disabling ip routing

hello

on my laptop i am trying to disable ip routing.

i have gone through all the connections, none of them are shared. i searched on the net, went into the regedit to look at the value for ipenablerouter, it is set to 0.

what am i doing wrong?
 
basically i am trying to get my pc and laptop to share an internet connection. i have got the folloiwing configuration

adsl modem -- (USB) -- PC -- (ethernet-wan port) -- belkin pre-n wireless router -- (ethernet-lan port) -- laptop (all wired connections)

i have got ICF enabled on my pc for the adsl connection and i am now trying to get an internet conenction on the laptop, the laptop also seems to have ip routing enabled(ipconfig/all says yes) and some one told me that if i have icf enabled on the laptop, then i would not be able to share the internet conenction of the pc
 
trying to share my adsl connection between my pcs using a wirelss router

unfortunately the output of the adsl connection is a usb connection hence it cant go into the router directly
 
Buy a DSL modem with ethernet out and do things the easy way (modem->router->clients).

What you're trying is theoretically possible, but I would lay odds that you'll never get it to actually work.

 
why are the odds against me?

i got a usb adsl modem supplied with the adsl connection.

will i be able to substitute an adsl modem wth ethernet out for the usb adsl modem (will my isp virgin.net have a problem with it)?
 
check to ensure that the "share this connection" box is not checked on the laptop.

Setup ADSL->Desktop's USB ->ICS->Wired LAN -> router's LAN port (Disable DHCP, assign an ip like 192.168.0.254)->Laptop/other PC's. Setup the internet connection sharing on the desktop and you should be good. Don't use the router as a router, use it as a switch/WAP.

Ignore the "IP Routing" stuff you see on the laptop.
