Sharing an Internet connection
Internet sharing lets all computers on the network access the Internet at the same time
using one Internet service provider (ISP) connection.
To set up Internet Explorer on each computer on your Ethernet network:
1
Make sure that the router or access point is turned on and configured as instructed
by your cable or DSL provider.
2
Click Start , right-click Internet , then click Internet Properties . The Internet Properties
dialog box opens.
Important The Internet setup procedure uses the Windows XP New Connection
Wizard and Internet Explorer. The example screens show those
screens that typically appear in the course of using the wizard. If your
Internet connection differs from that used in this example, you may
encounter additional screens or screens with different selections.
Make sure that you read each screen in the wizard and make your
selections based on your particular Internet connection situation.
If you use a browser other than Internet Explorer, see the help
provided with that browser for configuring it for use on a network.
Important If you are using a dial-up modem instead of a broadband connection,
see the documentation that came with your router or access point
for the correct procedure.
