You are connecting your laptop to your system upstairs which doesn't have an internet connection. That's the problem.
You need to turn ICS on the computer downstairs which is connected to the modem. Also you need to make sure that you have an additional network card in your computer downstairs because you will need to run the cable from your laptop to the computer downstairs for ICS to work. The easier way around all of this and not having to run a large amount of cable is buy a wireless router. Your modem would plug into the router and then you can run a cable from your computer downstairs to the router. Then you would need to configure the router for wireless connection (provided your laptop has wireless built in) and it would work. Also if you go that route, you can also get a wireless network card for your computer upstairs so it would also have an internet connection. Ads |
