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.

Compatibility problem with Vista and iTunes
I downloaded iTunes 9 on my Tobisha laptop Satellite last night and put about 2.5 GB of music on it. I didn't upload the music from the internet. I used MP3s, I had for a few years.
When I went to boot up the laptop this morning the loading process took some time, but it never loaded to the login screen. I just see the bottom of MicroSoft. Is there a compatibility problem with Vista and iTunes? Maybe I put too much music on my laptop?
Boot in safe mode and delete iTunes and all the music I downloaded would solve the problem? Or it is less simple than that?
Don't know where to direct this question if any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Hello
iTunes is compatible with Vista and there should not be any problem.
Yesterday, I installed iTunes 9 on my U400 and everything happened correctly.
If your laptop can not boot Vista correctly, then you should try the repair feature.Turn on the computer and press F8. Now you will see the advanced boot menu.
Now, you have many choices.As a first step, you should try the option called: last good known Configuration (Advanced)
If this will not help and the Vista will not start then try the option called repair your computer. This option displays a list of system recovery tools, you can use to repair startup problems, run diagnostics, or restore your system.
If that does not help, then you will need to retrieve the unit using the Toshiba recovery disc or HARD drive recovery.

Problems with WMP54G and different types of connections
Good so I had originally a WPA network, but the computer that I was using this adapter could not connect to it. When I called the help line that the woman told me that I needed to change the connection to a WEP, because of the computer being a "battery 2. So I did, and it worked. But then we discovered that one of our laptops to work cannot connect to WEP key because of the limitations of security set by the company. Of course, the work computer is more important, so we had to return the WPA connection, and of course, the computer with the WMP54G could not connect.
I went out and drivers me for the card, but when I tried to install it told me I had already. So I do not know where to go from here. Any suggestions?
AS the drivers for the card is already installed on your computer, the best way is to upgrade the Service Pack on your computer. Open IE and click on 'Tools' Menu bar and click on Windows Update, this will download all later corrected from the Microsoft Web site and once the update the complited, then your computer can connect to your network using WPA security.

Internet connection sharing (6) error during installation of nintendo wifi connector
"sharing the internet connection (6) error" appears when I try to install a nintendo wi - fi connector (to connect between my wii and computer for netflix). 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.
When I got the wi - fi connector connected the first time, I did it with my antiviirus running program: the help site suggested to uninstall then reinstall the wifi band program. so this time (after you have uninstalled it), I disabled the antivirus, but now get the error message.
I have a call in nintendo, but fear that it is a problem of microsoft xp.I don't have personal experience with this, but the title claims that it fixes your exact problem: Guide to fixing ' error (6) Internet connection sharing

By using internet connection sharing
I'm having a problem using ICS. It used to work perfectly, but then I had to reinstall vista and use my restore disks, and it has not worked since. That's what I'm trying to do. I'm taking a wireless internet signal coming from my router and it sends through my LAN port for the computer of my son, who does not have a receiver wireless on his computer. This used to work properly, but don't work no more... That's what I've done so far:
I turned on ICS on my wireless connection. I checked all the services I want to be able to have the connection (http, ftp, telnet, etc.). I turned "detect settings ip automatically' on my son's computer. I have a crossover cable from my computer to my son (that's what I used before too). I don't know what happens wrong... someone has any ideas? Please help :)
