Sharing ME Dialup internet access with others on net

Trying to link an ME desktop to an XP laptop via Router/Hub and share internet access with a dialup modem on the ME desktop. The two computers see each other and can access each others files, so the network part is working OK. The ME desktop can access the internet OK, however I cannot get the XP laptop to access the internet even though I have set the ME desktop to share the modem connection with the XP desktop. I have given each device an IP address and each computer can run the router/hub setup by entering the router/hub IP address in their browser. Is it possible that this combination will never allow the XP laptop to access the internet via the shared ME desktop modem? I can upgrade the ME desktop to Win2000 professional, if that is the only option. Is there a tutorial somewhere I could follow? I didn?t find anything on the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
