Internet connection sharing and dynamic dns.

Hi all.

Thank you for taking the time to read my message and respond. Much appreciated :-)

I have an old machine to windows xp with a usb key with an internet connection while I wait for my fiber :-)

I also have another piece of equipment connected via a crossover cable and they share internet and local traffic.

The other piece of equipment has a service that is running on what I can access locally, but I wish I could use around the web.

I have signed up for a dynamic dns account and have a host name.

I've assigned my public ip address for the host name, then im stuck. I tried several times and countless forums but I can't get my head around dynamic dns process. Can someone inform me?

the service runs on a particular port, and I know that I need to port forward, but I normally would in a router and I'm wundering is there a way to do it under windows?

Any help would be appreciated.

And I know diet teaspoon is not an option.

Thank you

Hi Haehjen,

You will need to open the ports in the security software installed on the computer for the task you want to perform.

  • Bluetooth network and Internet connection sharing problem

    I am putting in place a network via Bluetooth between two computers later with Toshiba Stack installed and to share the Internet connection with the second computer.

    On the computer of trees I put Internet connection sharing, and for this reason, it automatically assigns addresses TCP/IP for the Bluetooth Personal Area network (192.168.0.1).
    On computer 2, I put everything to get it automatically. Firewall (Kaspersky) disabled.

    When I connect 2 Bluetooth devices, everything looks fine, the 2nd automatically gets the IP address, I can ping both computers and Internet works also on the 2nd computer, for a few seconds! After that, it appears as the 2nd computer is disconnected from the network... what could be the problem?

    In the case of the observer under the System tab, I found information like these:
    2nd comp:
    The system has detected that the network \DEVICE\TCPIP_{E44D18EB-91F5-4 adapter has been connected to the network and launched a normal operation via the network card.

    The browser has forced an election on network \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{E44D18EB-... because a master browser was stopped.

    and the 1st model also appears this:
    The system has detected that the network Bluetooth adapter... Area Network - Packet Scheduler Miniport has been disconnected from the network, and the network adapter configuration has been released. If the network adapter was not disconnected, this may indicate that it has malfunctioned. Please contact your vendor for updated drivers.

    In your case, I would look at the following Web site:
    http://APS.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/redirect.php?page=pages/HOWTO.html
    It lists the following document:
    "Internet on PDA via PAN using Notepad as a gateway."
    In your case, the PDA is another laptop, but the procedure should be very similar.
    I would check the firewall settings later if it still does not work.

  • Problem with Vista and XP computers Internet connection sharing.

    I have a host computer running Windows XP service pack 3, with an of Virgin Mobile Broadband2Go modem and a laptop computer with Vista. The host computer is connected to a Microsoft MN - 700 via a CAT5 network cable. The laptop is connected via a wireless connection. I'm sharing the Broadband2Go internet connection by using Internet connection sharing. I enabled sharing on the network, on the host computer connection. But the laptop does not connect to the internet. I can ping the host of the laptop, but cannot ping the laptop computer from the host. I have tried everything I can think of, to get the job of network. He worked, until Thursday. Thursday, there is some automatic updates installed on the host computer. They have been updated for security. I don't know if updates of security would have affected the network or not. All helkp would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Oscar

    It is a facility that is complicated, because the host computer and the MN-700 can act as routers and DHCP servers, making it uncertain given the laptop its TCP/IP configuration.  Here are two ways to make it work:

    • Use the MN-700 as a router: connect the host computer to the "Modem" port of the MN-700.  To do this, interface LAN of the MN - 700 must have an IP address in a different subnet from the 192.168.0.x subnet that uses ICS.  The laptop will be able to ping on the host, but the host will not be able to ping from the laptop.

    or:

    • Use the MN-700 as a point of access only, not as a router: connect to the host computer to one of the MN-700 Ethernet ports and disable the DHCP server integrated of the MN-700.  Both computers should be able to ping each other.

  • Problem to create the Internet connection sharing between Windows XP and Windows Vista.

    Original title: Internet connection sharing between Windows XP and Windows Vista.

    Hello

    Recently, I plugged a laptop running Windows XP to a desktop computer running Windows Vista using a standard Ethernet cable with the intention of use sharing of Internet connection. The notebook contains a wireless connection that I've routed to the office via the cable said.  While the initial phase of installation went well (I was too lazy to do it manually, so I just used the Wizard "Set up a home or small business network" Windows XP,) I had to turn off the host computer to install a program. When I tried to set up ICS again, I couldn't connect to the Internet by using ICS. After this failure, I tried to configure the properties of TC/IPv4 (IP, gateway by default, etc.) manually, but I still couldn't run.  I am able to access the shared host PC and client files. It seems to me that some service essential to the proper functioning of the ICS may be disabled in some way, but it's just speculation, as I have no evidence of such a service. Help would be most appreciated.

    Thank you

    I tried this before using a laptop to share internet with my 360.  problem is there was Nat on the router, and it is in contradiction with the ics.

    Anyway long story short I did some research on the Internet and discovered that if you're behind a router ICS will be confllict with her, as ICS also does routing. a much better option is to "bridge the conections ' on the laptop.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/hnw_bridge_install.mspx?mfr=true

    If you go this route, you need to set a static ip address for the office,

    Either that or if you want to continue using ICS put the laptop in the DMZ in the router may help, but it will be less secure.

    Hope that this helped good luck

  • Internet connection sharing does not work anymore

    I have used Windows Vista Home Premium for 2 years now on my laptop. Internet connection sharing enabled to connect to the internet via my wireless adapter and allowed me to share my internet connection through the ethernet port. He worked for more than a year. All of a sudden 4 months ago Windows Vista doesn't let me share the internet connection more. When I go to networking and sharing Center, click on "Manage network connections" and it shows that my "Wireless Network Connection" is always set to share. So after reading several forums, I clicked on wireless network connections and click right properties. Then I clicked on the sharing tab, to make sure that "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection" has been verified and that it is. After that, Windows Vista will not always share the internet. Someone suggested that I double check the IP version 4 and 6 on the wireless and Ethernet connection were defined on IP addresses obtain automatically, and they are. The computer still will not share the internet connection! I even took the manufacturer in the view of portable and made sure my cable modem Simulator wasn't bad. I took it to a computer store and we checked the crossover cable. Everything is fine! What else can I try?

  • Internet connection sharing cannot be enabled.

    Greetings. I noticed a lot of posts about a similar situation, but I don't seem to find the answer that works for me. The skinny: using Windows 7. I connected to XBox live through ICS with my laptop. Hotel has wireless and I connected to it. Then, I followed the instructions and my wireless for sharing of the value. From there on, I wired XBox laptop w/ethernet cable and XBox settings manually configured as IP address, subnet, gateway, & DNS address mask. It was working fine the first day. During the next two days, connection was super slow... but it still worked. The problem does not seem to come from the hotel's Wi - Fi connection. It was the laptop for XBox it seemed. So I did some reading more and got more stupid than usual. I tried to 'Bridge' of the LAN and wireless connections to see if I could get better results. I'm not too good sense of course so I didn't know if it would work. There can be no. This is why I removed the two bridge connections and even removed the icon of "Bridge". I tried to go back to the original configuration that has worked and that's when I started getting the "connection sharing Internet can not be activated. A LAN connection is already configured with the IP address that is required for automatic IP addressing"message. So now, when I check the share my wireless, I have that message and it won't share. I'm lost! I tried "ipconfig \all. I tried "netsh winsock reset." Nothing seems to work. I don't know if I'm doing something of out of order which does not allow local network setting. I mean... what must be plugged in the ethernet cable, or even not at all, and when it is, that the parameters of the Xbox is? I even put the XBox failing to see network settings if I could start to this end. If it was not obvious, I'm still able to access the internet wireless and wired. This is something crazy and so far, none of my smart friends have been able to help! Thanks in advance for any of yours. As I said, I'm really not good with this stuff so if you have answers, please show idiot as I am a fool proof. See you soon!  Jim C

  • ICS: Internet connection sharing ERROR while allowing IP.

    Hi all

    My "Netgear" router gives the IP Address of the gateway 192.168.0.1 and my laptop is connected via a wireless connection. When I turn on my connection sharing wireless internet connection, windows xp tells me with the message below:

    "When Internet connection sharing is enabled, your LAN adapter will be on use the 192.168.0.1 IP address." Your computer may lose connectivity with other computers on your network. If these other computers have static IP addresses, you must set them to obtain their IP addresses automatically.
    "Are you sure you want to enable Internet connection sharing?"

    When I press 'Yes', it gives me an error:

    "An error occurred while Internet connection sharing was being enabled.

    Internet connection sharing cannot be enabled.
    A LAN connection is already configured with the IP address that is required for automatic IP addressing.

    My question is, if we can configure ICS service to activate other windows of the IP ADDRESS is required to apply?

    Thanks in advance for your help...

    I'm sorry, but ICS is completely inflexible and does not change its LAN IP address.

    The settings that you found are for something else: allowing unsolicited Internet connection requests to pass through the firewall on the ICS computer to a client computer.

    Change the address LAN IP of the router.  It is easy to do and will solve the problem.

I have high speed dial-up (canada), but apparently can use wi - fi connector to talk about the wii. with the first installation, it worked well enough to allow the wii. but the wii could not connect to netflix.
    the first time I had hung it, I ended up uninstalling and now when I try to reinstall it, this error message appears.

Error 0 x 80004005: unspecified error. "I checked and overchecked. The settings are OK, it's just my computer that has the problem, the other OS I installed (Windows 7) he shares perfectly. It is not material, it's just because of VISTA. What can I do? I searched on the Internet for 5 days and nothing. People seem to encounter this problem, but no answers, or nobody gives one any solution. Can I reinstall just the ICS service? Is this possible? To correct it, a key "reg", a patch, no matter WHAT?
