Windows Machine
Ok Problem 192.168.1.1 is not routable via the internet! It will not work
to get out on the internet. You can only use this ip for a local connection.
If this is the ip you are trying to get out on will not work. So if this is
the nic you are
using trying to get out then you will have to change it ip.
If you are using this as a second nic for local then you will be fine.
>>Specify IP address is checked and has IP: 192.168.1.1 Subnet:
255.255.255.0
>>Wins is disabled Gateway: 192.168.1.1
>>DNS Config is Enabled with Host: auntbee (my name for the Windows
computer)
>>Domain is Blank
Also you should load samba if not already loaded.
Now is the earthlink connection dialup or dhcp via time warner or dsl ?
