Internet sharing problem

Hi all;

I have an ADSL cable came from an internet cafe , he provides me the internet connection to a mac address and IP address .

To get the internet through this cable , the computer must have this configurations :

Mac Address :
00 17 19 18 DC 5F
IP Addrees :
192.168.1.105
Default Gateway:
192.168.1.1
DNS :
192.168.2.14
192.168.2.9

I need to share this connection to another two computers

I bought another Lan card , added it to the same computer with windows server 2003 , and gave it the following configurations:
IP address :
192.168.0.1
No default gateway

Then , i made a sharing from the first card(the old one , the one which connected to ADSL cable) to the another card(the new one) .

Then , i linked the new card to a switch , then connected all the computers to this switch .

The other computers have these configurations:
IP Address : 192.168.0.* (2,3,4 ...)
Default Gateway : 192.168.0.1

As a result , i didn't gain the access to the internet on my computers .

any idea ?

Thanx for u all

If the cafe has only provided one IP then that won't work. You have made your machine a gateway, 192.168.0.1. The cafe is allready the gateway.

I've never done this, so I'm just assuming, but it's worth a try unless somebody knows better.
Put things back as they were and run the connection wizard. Once the net is on, fit the new card, attach it to the switch, connect the other PCs to the switch, right click the connection icon for the new card (you may have to go into network settings and tick the box to enable the icon to show) and select "bridge this network".
Run the connection wizard on the other machines and see what happens.

Thumbs up

your default gateway is 192.168.1.1,the cafe address through the router is 192.168.1.105 if you wish to connect and you have an Ethernet switch just plug each computer to switch in turn and run network wizard it should find each one and allow connection .If for any reason it doesn't ask the cafe for the access password to router if one exists and configure their router on the set up for each machines ip,allocating each machine 192.168.1.1 to 255.
It would help to know which router they are using as the set up varies 192.168.1.1 is the default setting for a few different models of router.
It might also help to know about the type of Ethernet switch you are using as these days most do it for you under auto detection,the values you have given to your machines are whack to start with tho 192.168.0.(2,3,4) you will not connect to gateway with 192.168.0. (anything)as the address is wrong to start with i.e no zero in default.192.168.1.1-255 ,excluding 192.168.1.105.
good luck. :^D
