hope im not asking a stupid question here... i'm sharing a cable modem with 2 computers using win2k's ICS, just wondering wats the difference with using a 3rd party software like winroute?
 
MS ICS is free if you have Win98SE, Win98ME, or Win2000.

It is a decent product that works, the other NAT software have additional bell and whistlers.


A Quote from practicallynetworked.com

" ICS is not the fullest-featured sharing program out there. It doesn't support logging, access controls, or many other features that you may find in other programs. It does support "port mapping" or opening holes in its firewall, which is needed if you want to run a server on your LAN, or for many other applications, including on-line gaming. However, ICS versions other than the Win2000 flavor don't make it easy to do this. "
