Hi, I have installed zone alarm pro on my system and it is used as a ICS gateway out to internet for my other pc in my house. Problem is my other pc is not able to access out to internet even i have setup trusted zone for my network of 192.168.0.0. It happens for all the firewall software i have used. Any solution? Many thanks.

Rgds,
Leslie

You need to purchase a router, Linksys are good but the best would be Nexland although they are very pricey but most ISPs use them. Routers act as a NAPT (Network Address & Port Translation) Firewall, but you can still use ZA Pro on each individual PC that's also recommended. Once setup which is easy both PCs can access the Internet. Visit Nexland's site to learn more.

If you have windows 2000 machine. you need to set ICS first to act as a router. I have used this and works well. For some extra protection you can enable ip filtering on nic.

Hi Leslie,

I guess you've found the answer.

In short. You have a routing issue. You can either purchase a router, or use one of your system as a proxy for your other pcs to communicate with the web.

Guess you're in Singapore.. hope you'd check out the recent comex. Let me know if you need help.

Regards,
