Modem Internet Connection via DCC: Client

for additional information:
See Parallel Technologies' Web Site for detailed information on
Internet Connection Sharing via Direct Cable Connection (DCC) :
There are some very helpful Step-By-Step Setup Instructions for setting up
DirectParallel^® Direct Cable Connection (DCC) on Windows 95/98/2000/ME:

For "Modem Internet Connection Sharing via Direct-Cable Connection", you need first to
configure the DCC host for Internet Connection Sharing,
for "ADSL Internet Connection Sharing via Direect-Cable Connection", you need first to
configure the DCC host for Internet Connection Sharing,
then you need to adjust the configuration on the DCC client:

	In the Properties/configuration of Network, where you should have for basic DCC connectivity the components: - Client for Microsoft Networks - Dial-Up Adapter - NetBEUI protocol - TCP/IP protocol - File and Printer sharing (optional) Display the "Properties" of TCP/IP:
	tab: IP-address no need to assign an IP-address, it will use by default: 192.168.55.2
	tab: DNS Configuration - enable DNS - enter your computer name as Host - enter the IP-address of the DCC-host as DNS Server. This is required, so that the DCC-client knows to pass any DNS-request (like: www.wown.com) on to the DCC host, which will itself pass it on to the DNS-server defined by your Internet provider.
	Verify this configuration: Make the DCC connection to the DCC host, use "winipcfg" (via the Start-menu / Run) (or "ipconfig" on NT4 and Windows2000): - make sure that the IP-address of the DCC host is defined as DNS-server Note: although the Gateway address is displayed to be the same as the IP-address of the DCC-client, it is working properly. However, if you experience problems, then I suggest to defined MANUALLY for the DCC client: - IP-address: 192.168.55.2 - subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 - Gateway: 192.168.55.1

You are now ready to install the non-Microsoft Internet Connection Sharing via Modem or
the non-Microsoft Internet Connection Sharing via ADSL .
