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 network:
1 Make sure that the access point router 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 access point router for the correct
procedure.
