You should really use NAT or ICS services provided through your operating system if you have xp/ me/ win 98 se or windows 2000. These services translate the ip packets and share a common ip address. if you do not have one of these operating systems you should really use a hardware NAT router or internet sharing router and set you tcp/ip settings to use a dhcp and the hardware will do the rest/ try simply.co.uk they sell them for around ?50. a router will run connection a lot faster than throughyou O/S and can also provide additional services like a hardware firewall and packet filtering / dmz which would prevent a denial of service attack if a hacker or competitor found your ip address. wingate would crash your network in this situation.rgd
