ok here's my problem.


I am running a LAN 10/100
All 3 computers have windows XP home
The hub is 10/100

The host computer is running DSL and used Networking wizard to connect to DSL. With options that say other computers connect to this one to get on the internet.

The other two clients
ran networking wizard with options saying they connect to another computer to access internet.

I have no problems sharing files. No problems playing NETWORKED games. I also have no problems running Internet games from both clients. However Accessing certain websites like yahoo is ok too. When click on the email button it never loads the page. Also some websites never load and some do. There seems to be what I like to call an internet stuttering problem. Where it will load the page after a few seconds.

All websites work normally on the host. I disabled the internet connection firewall. We also have no 3rd party Firewall program or Net Nanny-like prgoram running. My 2 questions are how do I fix this and I heard something about Windows XP firewall which is different than the ICS Firewall, how do I disable it?


Thanks

Go out and buy a Linksys router. This is teh best way to hoop up DSL.

Follow the instrutions and in 15 minutes everyone will be on-line...
