Scarecrow Man Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Why are you not using the router as the gateway?Modem > Router > PC1 & Laptop.If you do not want the laptop on the internet, your router probably has advanced features to disable access to certain IP's, MAC addresses, or ports.ORModem > ComputerRouter > Computer & Laptop, but put both computer and Laptop into the LAN ports with nothing in the WAN port. Disable ICS (if enabled) on the computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juzzyx Posted July 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 I want the laptop to have internet connect, we dont have the laptop connect to the router as we want to share connect through the computer and laptop because the router gets turned off and we still wish to share connectivity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Ah! I understand now.This may be a bit difficult to explain, but it should be possible.Modem > Router > PC > Laptop.Have the modem supply the router with internet. Have the router connect to PC via a straight-thru network cable. Then run a crossover cable from the 2nd network connection on the PC to the laptop. You will need ICS enabled to do this.
