Thread: unable to share internet connection

Hi guys i need some help.

I have a laptop with windows7 installed and PC with windows xp installed.

I am using tp-link with a capability of wired&wireless modem router.

I connected my laptop via wireless and connected the internet, it is working properly.

When i connected to the xp PC via Lan connection. I can able to share the files.
But i am unable to share the internet connection.

What i have done so far
1. Checked the sharing option in wireless lan.
2.Checked the option sharing in broadband connection in laptop windows7.
3.Changed the properties of the local area connection in PC to ip address as 192.168.2.2 (where windows7 laptop ip address is 192.168.2.1) and subnet mask as 255.255.255.0
And leave other as blank

Opening link is a virtue we should practise on forums. Yes, it attend that too

Have you enabled DHCP ?

You need to be on PPPoE (Always ON) mode. In this you can connect without a dialer. Simply switching ON the modem will establish the connection to internet.

1. Configure your modem in PPPoE mode.
2. Enable DHCP in your modem.
3. In the TCP/IP properties of your connection (all machines), set " Obtain IP address automatically ".
