how i can share DIALUP Internet Connection in Windows XP

[Hossam]

Hello ,

i wanna to know how i can share DIALUP Internet Connection in Windows XP

 

[Wolfsraider]

the easiest way for me was to buy a crossover cable($10.00 at staples) and network the two computers as a private network with an internet connection on the main computer with sharing enabled on both.

sorry

"you will need a blank floppy disc"

run the crossover cable to each computer
"networking wizard can be found in control panel change or install a network"
then run the win xp networking wizard and select the one that says "network with a connection to the internet" run that and answer the few questions.it will tell you to insert a blank floppy
let it copy the files to the floppy and insert the floppy in the other computer in that computer click
start -run - a drive and open the file on the floppy after it is done make sure you hooked up the crossover cable to the ethernet cards.

reboot both machines and they should come up as networked enable file sharing and open or install the isp on the computer you made the disc from after it is connected to the internet then start the browser "internet explorer" and surf

if you can't surf then check and make sure on the other computer that sharing the internet is enabled


it is actually quite easy to do in xp as it does most of the work for you lol

hope this helps

items needed to make this work

ethernet card for both machines
crossover cable
floppy disc

time to accomplish this maybe 10 to 15 minutes max
i am dual booting on xp pro and 98se in 98se
will reboot and check my answer in xp back in 10 minutes after i verify the steps

from xp:
start
network and internet connections
set up or change your home or office network
this computer connects directly to the internet.the other computers on my network connect to the internet through this computer.

after that the rest should be correct.
my spare computer is in arkansas so i can't go there lol
i had this setup for about 8 months and it works great for multiplayer games and sharing an internet connection

i found it easier to set the internet connection up first,then the network.

hope this helps
