What the heck is going on with cable modem sharing?

[novon]

Ever since my @home restarted on the AT&T network, whenever I enable Internet Connection Sharing in Windows XP to share the net with other computers on my home network, I loose browsing ability on my computer (the one with the cable connection). Anyone else experiencing this? It worked fine before the @home change event.

thanks

i dunno, but every once in a while i lose the connection and have to restart the computer.

Yeah, I narrowed it down the ICS, if I turn it off it works fine.

i use a router and this is starting to piss me off. i have to reboot every once in a while becuase all webpages will show up as page not found, and now my aim can't connect. it doesn't even try like it would if it were a problem with the aim servers, it pops up right away telling me it can't connect. GRRR.

Ditto. Dunno. I reboot the router and good to go.
