Problems setting up 2 ICS on 1 network

So here is my network setup.
on this pc (main desktop), i got 2 nics. 1 that connects to my apt network (wan). and the 2nd nic is connected to my 2nd pc (media pc) by a crossover cable. of course, nic1 on here has ICS enabled.

on my media pc, i also have 2 nics, wired and wireless. the wired one connects back to my main desktop. for the wireless, i found a program called 2hotspot to turn it into an access point so i can get my wii and ds online. When i try to enable ICS on nic1 of media pc, it gives me an error saying "ICS cannot be enabled. A LAN connection is already configured with the IP adress that is required for automatic IP addressing."

im pretty sure this is because of ICS on the main desktop assigned 192.168.0.1 to the nic and thats what the nic on the media pc needs too. so is there a way to have ICS enabled on both machines?
 
Welcome to AT Network Forum.

ICS is Not great for use beyond two computers.

Double ICS with double NAT? Nah.

Follow tyanni advice.
